It seems to me that the overheating from the old power supply may have damaged the audio card or the onboard sound chip but i cant be 100 percent sure on that,.I wouldn't have put the old power supply back in, you can cause more damage from overheating which can result in other componets such as the processor and MB frying, get a new power supply as soon as possible and one that is the same wattage and make as the old one that way you cant go wrong. when you have put the new power supply in try the sound again, it may be just the power supply then again it may not. |
Thanks. I kind of had that idea in the back of my mind knowing that i might fry the motherboard or other parts, but my family still wanted it hooked up(they want me to fix every problem with the PC,b tu don't want to leave it alne when i tell them too). My only question though is how could I ruined the sound card? It was working absolutely fine just before I pulled the power supply. I had it running just before I shut it down and unplugged it to pull the power supply. Are you talking an influx of poer when I reconnected the power supply? Also I don't have a sound card on my PC i think it's an onboard audio proccessor on the mb.
