Motherboards...
What happened to the audio connectors for CD or DVD drives on motherboards?
I am building a system to be connected to a TV for demonstrations, video conferencing, etc., & have a DG965SS Motherboard & see no place to connect the DVD. I noticed this on the last dozen or so systems I built using the D101GGCL boards, but it wasn't a necessity, so I wasnn't concerned with it. What's up wit' dat? |

Each motherboard has its own list of features. Only its designers can say why particular features are included or omitted. -- The e-mail address in our reply-to line is reversed in an attempt to minimize spam. Our true address is of the form . |

I could see that on a mobo with no onboard sound, but with it, you'd think chances are pretty likely that someone would be plugging a CD or DVD into the board, huh? |

I haven't used one of those things in years. You generally don't need it. If you look at the properties page on a CD/DVD device there is a checkbox for using digital audio data. The data is carried over the IDE cable. -- ybbxvatyvxrnobeantnvayvivatyvxrnurergvpyvfgravatgb neguheyrrerpbeqfznxv atnyylbhesevraqfsrryfbthvyglnobhggurveplavpvfznaqg urerfgbsgurvetrareng vbaabgriragurtbireazragnertbaanfgbclbhabjohgnerlbh ernqlgborurnegoebxra |
