This also happens in games and occasionally when coming out of screen saver. I...

I recently bought a laptop with vista pre-installed, and when I tried to use my 2 gig mini sd card with my new laptop I was prompted to format. Now my 2 gig mini card, which worked great for 6 months prior to this, shows only 956mb of available memory and I can't reformat back to 2 gigs on either vista, xp, or my phone. Why did this happen and how do I fix it?

My (new) computer currently has 100 series drivers. The 158 series drivers would appear to resolve a couple of (minor) issues I have, and possibly offer better performance. BUT...

Should I wait for Certified versions or can I use any of the officially...

So I just finished installing the KB937077 update for Vista which is supposed to fix the problem relating to hybrid sleep mode and Vista not playing 24bit hd audio after it. The problem still persists, however, but strangely enough when I turn my speakers all the way up I can hear a very faint bit of whatever is playing (though barely enough that it registers for more than 1-2dBa.
