Just go to run and type SNDVOL32 in the box and make sure all the levels are up and not muted.

The CMOS probably has nothing to do with this. If your sound is on board, there will probably be an entry in your CMOS Setup program that will Enable or Disable the onboard sound. However, if you didn't manually change that, and everything else is working fine, then thats probably not the issue.

If the SNDVOL32 check doesn't work, and all your wires are plugged in the right places, there is more chance that the sound driver got messed up than anything else. Go into Device Manager and make sure that under Sound,Video & Game Controllers there is nothing with a yellow exclamation mark. If there is, then that item has a problem/missing/screwed up driver.

    • Intel Nova Lake alleged performance shows massive improvement, could answer AMD 3D V-cache

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Intel Nova Lake alleged performance shows massive improvement, could answer AMD 3D V-cache by Sayan Sen Intel’s next-generation Nova Lake-S desktop CPUs are shaping up to be a major overhaul if a recently leaked slide is to be believed. According to the leak, which appears to be a cutout portion of Intel's presentation slide, the top-end Core Ultra 9 SKU could deliver roughly 1.1x or 10 percent better single-threaded (ST) performance and a 1.6x or 60 percent boost in multi-threaded (MT) workloads over Arrow Lake-S. Assuming this is true, in order to achieve this big MT jump, core counts are expected to go significantly up compared to the current gen (Arrow Lake-S). A previous report outlines up to 52 total cores on the flagship part, 16 performance “P-cores,” 32 efficiency “E-cores,” and four ultra-low-power “LP-E” cores, yielding 52 threads in all (If you recall, Intel has dropped hyper-threading, its version of SMT or simultaneous multi-threading on the Lunar Lake architecture). There is no information regarding clock speed though, so we can't guess what kind of IPC (instructions per cycle) Nova Lake may be delivering. Nova Lake-S is also said to support DDR5-8000 memory by default and bring 32 PCIe 5.0 lanes plus 16 Gen 4 lanes for I/O, on a new socket,1954. Nova Lake aims to succeed Arrow Lake’s combo of Crestmont P-cores and Skymont E-cores with new microarchitecture, codenamed “Coyote Cove” and “Arctic Wolf,” respectively, along with the addition of LP-E (Low Power Island) cores that debuted on Meteor Lake. If the internal slide’s performance claims hold true, Intel could close the single-threaded gap against AMD’s Zen 6 Ryzen 9000 X3D parts and redefine desktop gaming leadership. For now, these performance numbers remain unverified rumors even though it sort of does look like the real thing (the font matches). Intel has yet to share any official Nova Lake-S benchmarks or architectural deep dives. Finally, Nova Lake is also rumored to debut a large LLC (last level cache) somewhat similar to AMD's 3D V-cache which helps in boosting gaming performance and other tasks. If you recall, Intel has been working on an L4 (level 4) cache for a while.

      It would be great if they could release a B750 and take on more of the mid-range at a better price.

      RDP still doesn't work when you aren't logged in? And still only takes over the screen, not an existing session?

      I think it should, yes.

      And how big your corporation has to be to get that support? 20 thousand employees?
