I have a Dell Latitude E6520 that I recently reformatted and installed Windows 10 on.
My intention is to use this Laptop as a steaming PC, and after running my gameplay and such through an Elgato HD60 I found that it actually works very well and can render and output a 720p signal at 60fps with given that it’s running pretty barebones hardware with 4gb of memory and an i5-2520m dual core processor (both of which I plan on upgrading after I transfer the Mobo to a custom desktop case).
The only problem is that no audio is being picked up by this PC from the capture card. I spent close to 24 hours trying to rectify the situation with every single workaround I could find until I found out that the IDT sound hardware on the Mobo is not supported in Windows 10. After attempting to run compatibility modes for Windows 7 and 8 to no avail. I want to know if there is any type of potential workaround to getting some kind of sound playback I/O device that circumvents the unsupported sound functions on my laptop.
As space isn’t an issue considering I’m going to have full access to the Mobo, I was wondering if it were possible to connect a soundcard via one of the few PCIe x1 slots as many cards already support x1 anyway. Theoretically the soundcard should function as the primary sound encoding device right? I just need something to pick up the incoming audio signals.
