For anyone who is interested we have found that we could not get mainboards with the bellow built in sound card to be recognised with RAT. We in the end used a soundblaster Audigy 2, which worked fine straight away. Seems like RAT could perhaps do with an update ??
Sound chip we could not get RAT to recognise High Definition Audio Intel high definition audio Realtek ALC861 8 channel CODEC with Jack sensing and Universal Audio Jack (UAJ) technology S/PDIF out interface. Note that the manual specifically states it is AC97 2.3 compatiable Thanks Peter DeSantis pe...@jumbovision.com.au Jumbo Vision International Pty Ltd Unit 2 ,1 Aitken Way Kewdale WA 6105 Australia Tel: 61 8 9353 6200 Fax: 61 8 9353 6211
