I had not done this, but will try it. I'll try anything. I am so disappointed
in Vista Ultimate and Microsoft, I placed an order for an Apple today. This
machine will now just be a back up....if it ever works again. I'll let you
know how it worked out.

I recently installed Vista Ultimate on my computer. It has been a nightmare
and Microsoft customer service has absolutely sucked. Essentially, after
installing VU, I now have to upgrade my Office (another $400) and somehow
when a Microsoft Customer Service rep was performing an external audit on my
system, he removed my audio device. I don't know how to reinstall the device.
When I go on line and download the noted driver (simatel HiDef Audio CODEC),
it is noted as working properly. I can't figure it out and neither can
Microsoft. Anyone have any ideas?

What is your audio adapter in Control Panel Device Manager, (expand Sound,
video and game controllers)?

Have you downloaded and installed audio device Vista drivers from your computer
manufacturer or audio device manufacturer?

Mallory,

In Device Manager, open the Properties of your sound device, and note what
error messages are displayed. The Properties section typically provides
some
guidance as to what corrective action to take. Follow any advice provided.

In addition, if all else fails, you can remove the sound card in Device
Manager, thus allowing Windows to reinstall it when you reboot. This step
often fixes problems such as you have. Post back if none of these
suggestions does anything. We'll try to devise another approach.
