SY-P4VSA Quick Start Guide

I have installed my modem drivers several times and I still cannot get my

modem to work. Why?

If you are sure that the modem driver has been installed correctly, then you need to

install the VIA 4 in 1 driver from the SOYO CD, this is because Windows does not

properly recognize relatively new chipsets.

Audio Issues

How can I disable the on-board Audio ?

Set the "AC97 Audio" option in the BIOS to disable this option can be found under

SOYO COMBO Feature.

In Device Manager, I keep getting yellow exclamation signs on my sound port

even though I have installed my sound driver several times and I could not get

my sound card to work. What is wrong?

It is likely that you did not have the correct driver installed. If you are sure that the

correct sound driver has been installed, then please install the 'VIA 4 in 1' driver for

the motherboard.

The sound is working in my system, but when I play CD music from the

CD-ROM, I do not get any sound. What is wrong?

This is because the 3-wire audio cable from the CD-ROM to the sound card is not

connected or it is loose.

The sound and everything else works fine except that the recorder and

microphone do not work. What is wrong?

This is because the recorder and microphone in the Windows are not enabled.

Please go to sound properties and enable them.

Lock up (freeze)

When I boot up my system, everything works fine. It sees my CPU and

memory, detects my hard drive, floppy drive and CD-ROM but locks up at

"Verify DMI pool data... ", and it won't go any further. What should I do?

Please clear the CMOS via JP5 then choose 'load optimized default' in the bios and

save the bios and exit. Next, unplug all other add-on cards except the video card

and floppy drive controller, and see if it can boot from floppy. Then put back the

peripherals one by one to identify which one causes the lockup.

I can not get my board to run properly.

Please make sure you have the latest bios and driver from the SOYO web site at:
