I have a gigabyte ga-p35c-ds3r motherboard, and I am trying to hook the computer to a hdtv. I have installed the latest realtek drivers from the gigabyte site for hd audio, but am getting no sound. The connection is hdmi to hdmi using an nvidia gt250 video card. The card has plugs on it for pass through audio, but I cannot find any spdif plugs on the motherboard. From looking at the manaul and the board itself, the only spdif out connections are on the back using either a digital coax cable or an optical cable. If there are no pins on the board to use the pass through feature on the video card, can digital coax cables be ran through a splitter? Thanks...

May be you should try to change all your old ELCO and DDR bus termination regulator (the type is vary depend on the manufacturer) on the GA-EP35-DS3R ...AFTER you buy yourself a new board...or try to check your powersupply current and voltage..check your hdd for bad sector, check your memory for a defective chip (with a multitester, a hirens boot cd or mini pe or bart pe), check your proc and chipset temperature..

Realtek AC 97 is the only driver for this board, did you install the 64 bit driver rather then the 32 bit driver?
