Hey,

Just installed Windows 8.1 Pro from Previously being on XP pro, Everything worked a treat on xp.

Now my audio isn't working, I've gone through all the checks possible and have come to a hault on drivers.

I need the drivers for my motherboard for audio out, for some reason it isn't working.

Motherboard is asrock 890gm pro3.

Looked on asrock website but can't find any?

Thanks in advance

x86 or x64?

It's the VIA VT2020 sound-chip.

Did You update Your windows? If it didn't find any drivers,
here are they just for You:

http://www.via-drivers.com/download-VT2020S-sound-driver-for-Windows7-64bit.html" rel="nofollow - The x64 version

On ASRock's webpage there are the v8100 drivers, and this are the v8700 drivers
for W7, but I tested them and they do work on W8.1 and W10.

Have fun! And don't remember to check in the device manager if everything is installed!
