Can't get drivers...
Hello,
well my brother just bought and installed Win2k after seeing how stable it is on my dad's and my computer. Everything went fine except that I can't find drivers for these following things.... Multimedia Audio Controller PCI Simple Communications Controller Win2k doesn't have them on their database where I usually get my drivers from.... As far as I know,the mobo is a PCCHIPS M748MR,that's what Belarc reported |

I don't see how a modem could affect anything but it's a U.S. Robotics 33.6K Voice INT PnP [Modem]
I don't know if it's working,the computer is on internet through ethernet.... |

and I did succesfully booted into Safe Mode and disabled the multimedia controller and PCI simple communications controller,restart and the error still comes newme,the modem driver is installed fine by windows and does not have a yellow mark,the PCI thingy is not even in the same category in Device Manager,it's all alone in the "Others" category |

Turn it on in the BIOS. onboard sound = multimedia controller
pci simple communications = serial ports 3f8 - 2f8 or a on board modem, look in the bios and just below where is says to assign a IRQ for the video there should be an other option to assign a IRQ for a controler. |

Heres some drivers. check the onboard sound chip and modem chip and down load the drivers that match the # on the chips in the M748 section.

From the brand list I chose "unknown" there is a device named C-Media CM8338,I tried using this but it's not he correct one ALSO,notice that the drivers I downloaded were for a CMedia CM 8738 NOT CM8338 Is my sound device the CM8338??

Hi,
This is the Sound it's mostly CM8738 Multimedia Audio Controller and this PCI Simple Communications Controller is the onboard MODEM From pccrab... I have the drivers you need for the Sound - garanteed working as for the modem I would need the Wendor Number (you can see this one when you boot the computer after Post initialization.. Hope this helps If you want the drivers for the modem then just send your email addy to me.. Hpro

Hpro should get the sound going for you.
The driver you downloaded did not match the # on the sound chip so windows would not install them. sorry i sent you to the wrong site. but i needed the # on the sound chip and modem chip. Heres the sound card drivers. http://www.soundcard-drivers.com/companies/222.htm What are the # for the modem. look on the motherboard modem chip. |

The sound chip is more likely an 8330, not an 8338.
The PCI comm device IS your modem. |

Ok thanks guys the sound is fixed now....
but the PCI simple communications device is still driver-less I looked around the PC and saw no onboard modem... the only modem present is the US robotics one which sits in the ISA slot |

And do you have drivers installed for it, and it works?
If so, then the driver is probably for the voice portion of the modem, which isn't really needed... |
