May 13, 2006 There is no volume icon in the system tray, and no sound devices are listed in Device Manager. Sound Card Drivers; IBM Personal Computer 300PL. Hello, I am having a driver issue with my IBM 300GL. The serial number is 23VTLKN and the model type is a 6275-60U. We have always been able to use a display size.
It seems Yamaha sound cards hate me. I previously got 2 motherboards with built-in Yamaha YMF740s, neither of which will POST, then ended up purchasing a YMF724 that would prevent any and all computers I put it into from POSTing. Today, I picked up another YMF724(YMF724E-V version) and installed it in my IBM Personal Computer 300PL. When I booted the computer with the YMF724, it worked perfectly.
Computer POSTed and booted into Windows 95. I then proceeded to install drivers for the YMF724(I had some drivers on my laptop which I transferred to the 300PL). And again, like with the other YMF724 and the YMF740s before it, I'm faced with ANOTHER problem. Here's what happens: when I install the drivers for the YMF724, the only device installed is YAMAHA DS-XG PCI Audio CODEC.
Never mind that, but the sound card doesn't even work. I check in the Device Manager and notice that the sound card's Device Manager entry has an exclamation point on it. This is what Windows tells me when I view the properties: This device is either not present, not working properly, or does not have all the drivers installed. (Code 10) I can't get rid of this!
Even when I try to install the other parts of the YMF724's drivers, I get a Blue Screen of Death with an 'Invalid VxD Dynamic Link' error. It screwed up Windows 95 so badly, I had to reformat the hard drive. I have since installed Windows 98(not SE), and I still can't get the YMF724 to work correctly. Did I ONCE AGAIN get a defective YMF724 or are my drivers crap?

EDIT: I just installed DOS drivers for the YMF724, and when entering the SETUPDS program, I'm greeted with this error message: CODEC might not be connected WTF??? What the hell is this? Is the sound card broken? Oldbie Posts: 529 Joined: 2010-10-16 @ 17:35 Location: Montreal, Canada. I only have a single AGP graphics card in the computer(a 3DFX Voodoo 3), but it does have a Crystal CS4235 sound card which I've disabled in the computer's BIOS(it's built into the motherboard). Will I have to fit the YMF724 into another computer?
