Default Soundmax Audio Driver For Intel D875PBZ Motherboard!

It is on the Intel site. They are just too fricking stupid to make it available. But I can here.
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Deta...816&lang=e ng

but these idiots st Intel are so incompetent that they don't list them with the software downloads for the D875pbz motherboard, nor does the automated motherboard scan list them for you! In fact, a manual search on the intel site for
"d875pbz audio" does not turn up anything. But a search engine search on the internet with those exact search parameters took me to the intel page with the proper audio drivers for this motherboard! All I can say is "fricking idiots." I can't even call these stupid errors to their attention becuase I cannot get through to support becuase they cut off all email and phone contact to support for this product. Anyway, that is the Intel the link to the Soundmax drivers you need.Of course the d875pbz is not listed as being one of the mohterboards this download is for, but it is and it works.

the chipset drivers? Intel really no longer provides a download for the
chipset drivers package for that old motherboard?

I found 4 driver downloads from Intel for that mobo, one which was for
the chipset; however, it appears that is just a set of .inf files that
define the devices on the mobo. INF files merely describe the behavior
or interface of a device to the OS. They do not provide an actual
driver. The driver would be a mini-port driver already included in
Windows that the .inf file describes how to use. So the drivers are
already expected to be included in a Windows XP install but you may need
the .inf files to describe how to adapt the mini-port drivers to
interface with a particular implementation of a device.

Took me maybe 5 minutes to find. Took me longer to write this reply

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Deta...pkw =(D875PBZ)

My guess is you want the chipset INF update.

I found 4 driver downloads from Intel for that mobo, one which was for
the chipset; however, it appears that is just a set of .inf files that
define the devices on the mobo. INF files merely describe the behavior
or interface of a device to the OS. They do not provide an actual
driver. The driver would be a mini-port driver already included in
Windows that the .inf file describes how to use. So the drivers are
already expected to be included in a Windows XP install but you may need
the .inf files to describe how to adapt the mini-port drivers to
interface with a particular implementation of a device.
