I have an Intel Augsburg D915GAG motherboard with onboard sound. My old sound card got scratched and now freezes my computer when I try to start it with it in a pci slot. So now I have no sound. I have to the best of my knowledge googled answers with no luck on a solution for me.
The steps I have taken so far (mind you I may have not done them right) are :
1) Installed the drivers for the onboard sound via windows automatic driver search & install function in device manager.
2) Ensured the onboard sound is enabled in my bios.
3) Tested other speakers.
4) Verified it is showing volume settings in my mixer device through the icon in my taskbar.
5) Uninstalled the drivers and then reinstalled.
6) Called intel support only to be old the motherboard is no longer supported by them via live support or telephone.
Notes
-------
I do get a static sound when I attempt to plug the sound (plug?) into the port.
I am not able to buy a new five dollar sound card at this time. And do not want to if not absolutely necessary.

I am not sure where to go from here help?
