Sound in Windows 7-in Virtual Box OSE-SOLVED
« on: June 21, 2010, 10:34:49 PM »
Hi all,
I am not able to get sound from the Windows 7 that is installed in the Virtual Box 3.2.4.
I tried all the combination in the "Audio".
Please help.
I did not see any thread on sound here so I am creating a new one.

I don't run Winders at home. But, what do you have selected in the VBox sound settings?

There is a driver file that you will need to install to get sound in win 7.  It will be installed in the win 7 guest.

This thread may help as it contains a download link to the necessary file.

Yes, I installed the AC97 sound drivers from a magazine DVD (Windows did not/could not install on its own) and now I have sound.
Thanks all.
