have you updated the ac97 drivers recently? I'd occationatly have an update that would render programs that use the software sound buffer mute. IE Quake, Q2.for updated ac97 drivers: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/dlac97-2.aspx?lineid=5&famid=12&series=8&Software=True
windows update never checks to see if realtek updated their drivers. just like it never checks for the video drivers (dumb-ass thing to call it windows update when it doesn't really update windows, only MICROSOFT drivers).but try updating the drivers & see if it helps. you can always re-install the ones from your MB install disc.
But my point was that not updating the drivers isn't going to cause it to stop working.

Crapburgers, it doesn't work again. No sound in r1q2 or quake.exe; but sound in every other game including directx games...
