no sound under vista
Dear All,
I have a sound problem since vista install. My soundcard: SB audigy SE Tried everything, remove device (physically also...), uninstall, driver update, nothing helps. Device-manager shows its all right, but i cannot hear sound. With the other soundcard (abit-ic7 motherboard-integrated realtek) situation is the same. even mo youtube videos cannot played, i have tried in the forums suggested solution (run flashutil9b.exe), but i have only flashutil9e.exe (newer version??) - without result. After flash install websites fallen totally apart, ie7 not responding... official help cannot started, it shows my PID is invalid. Its impossible, i bought vista two weeks, after install registered it...should i type in the product key again?? please help, without sound its sooo lonely! Coldfeeted |

That seems odd, that both the Audigy drivers and the Realtek ones are not
working. Have you verified that the speakers are OK? Did you install Vista as an upgrade over XP? A clean install may give less trouble. The product ID is different from the product key. The product key is the 25 digit number that you enter to install Windows. The product ID is a number generated within a Windows installation. Open the System control panel, and scroll to the bottom. Mine takes the form xxxxx-xxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxx. (20 digits.) Good luck. Address scrambled. Replace nkbob with bobkn. "Coldfeeted" wrote in message ...
