Re: Sigmatel Audio - Intel D945GNT Motherboard

BlueMonkey,

Yes, all the items you mentioned have been tried to no avail. The .inf from
XPEfiles was added several weeks ago. I added device manager so I could see
what the devices are doing. All devices show that they are installed and
working correctly including the SigmaTel Audio driver - but when you open
the audio control panel item it shows no audio device, no playback device,
no midi device, etc.

And I tried Daniel's suggestion of componentizing the entire application in
C:\program files\Sigmatel\C-Major audio.

I think I will punt until after vacation - maybe a few days away will make
the light bullb go on?!?

I'd welcome any other suggestions - b.t.w. I added all the UAA drivers
(there are 3 if you count the Sigmatel Specific as well as the Microsoft).

Cheers.

Martin,

A rough guess. Do you have "Audio Control Panel" component included in
your build with resolved all dependencies? (since you mentioned you
copied the mmdriver.inf manually I don't think that component included in
the config)

"Primitive: MMSYS" component should also be there.

Also, how about the following components:
"Primitive: ks.sys",
"Primitive: Drmk.sys",
"Primitive: Winmm",
"Microsoft Kernel Audio Splitter",
"Microsoft Kernel Acoustic Echo Canceller",
"Microsoft Kernel DRM Audio Descrambler",
"Microsoft Kernel System Audio Device".

Folks,

I am continuing to have problems with componentizing the Sigmatel
Audio drivers for the above motherboard. What happens is that the
drivers all appear to install OK yet the audio control panel says "no
audio device". You can look at the sigmatel device and windows reports
the device as drivers installed and working properly.

When you double click the sounds control panel icon you get an error
saying unable to find mmdiver.inf. Even if I manually add this to the
image the same problem persists.

I have searched extensively and can only find two references to this
problem - one where no resoltuion was given and a second where Sean
advised that the sthda.inf was recursively calling other .infs. Per
Sean's instructions I included the referenced infs in the same location
and componentized - still the same problem.

I'm lost - anyone got any advice? The setupapi.log reports that the
device installs OK - so that really confuses me.

Any help would be appreciated - I've attached the .sld I created in
case that helps and the setupapi.log excerpt is below:
