My
Sahara "FRAGG" PC uses an
ASRock G31M-S motherboard, which uses the Realtek ALC662 Audio Codec. The problem arises when you try to use
Windows XP instead of
Windows Vista, because the
Windows XP driver doesn't seem to install properly.
Even after downloading the WinXP driver (WDM_R213.exe) from the
Realtek site, it wouldn't install. Then I did a Google search for "realtek alc662 winxp" and found this
HardForum post, which explains how to delete certain "HDAudio" registry keys. I tried it, rebooted as instructed, and was initially disappointed, not noticing that
WinXP wasn't finished. After being asked to reboot again, it now works!
