Installing sound drivers for VirtualBox sound in Windows 7

By admin | July 21, 2009

Even with the latest version of Windows 7 and VirtualBox 3.0 available, there is no sound drivers for the emulated sound card bundled, unlike Windows XP. To enable sound in Windows 7 under VirtualBox it is needed to install the drivers for the sound card.

Instructions

  1. Navigate to Realtek’s website and download the first item (Vista/Win7 (32/64 bits) Driver only (ZIP file)).
  2. Unzip the package into a temporary directory.
  3. Run setup.exe in the temporary directory.
  4. Click “Next”.
  5. After it displays “Begin to install/update AC’97 drives”, several popup windows by Windows will appear complaining about the verifier of the driver. Click “Install this device driver software anyway”.
  6. After a while Setup will, complete. Restart if you want.
