jumper the front audio connections, on the motherboard, if you are not useing a front audio jack. Asus does not tell you this in the manual, and they did not do this when the board was manufactured. BLINE_OUT_L to Line out_L and BLINE_OUT_R to Line out_R :toast: You will have sound if everything else is correct.

I know this was a long time ago but THANKS you just saved my bacon!! I remembered there was something just like this on the dfi NF4 board but I didn't know which jumpers and this is my first Asus NF4 ...anyways thanks again.
