ok but be sure to follow joe's example from here.
his hardware ID on his HP Paviliion 500-223w computer is the following:
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_111D&DEV_76F3&SUBSYS_103C2AF7&REV_1002
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_111D&DEV_76F3&SUBSYS_103C2AF7
The big reason why I ask for hardware ID is because the IDT Audio driver uses specific configuration INI files to setup the IDT audio device based on specific ID(s) used (also I don't wanna play guessing games as to what IDT audio hardware ID a person is using on the computer)
unfortunately, my family & I are switching internet providers soon (dumping DSL for cable internet), so I won't be available online until that transition is completed.
IDT sometimes just can't get their control panel UI right - and they got out of the PC audio business near the end of 2013 (they basically threw in the towel) and sold off their AC97/HDA products to Tempo Semiconductor inc., they just did not have the time/energy, the money & the manpower anymore to make new drivers (and also to compete against other audio chip makers like Realtek & VIA; unlike IDT & some, Realtek & VIA can produce all-purpose drivers but IDT can only make PC/OEM specific drivers).
Edit 2/23 - do you need a control panel option like this one?
I'm using my mom's Dell e1405 laptop with a modded 6427 driver that uses a new IDT audio control panel UI and I had to modify an INI file, specifying the "location" of where the ports are found. in the example, they are on the left hand side of the laptop but the color of the ports are actually black (not pink & green). the IDT audio chip on her laptop is STAC9200, which only provides 2-channel stereo sound only but the built-in speakers nearly sound as good as using plain PC desktop speakers.
For true 5.1 sound, you need to connect ALL 3 audio cords to all 3 ports on the Dell Studio 1555 laptop (and that means you can't use the microphone at all; yes you have to connect that 3rd cord from your 5.1 speakers onto that Mic port).
