Arthur,

Curious to hear more about your issues. Are you using an older machine? Does the manufacture not have drivers for your audio card? Are you running older software that was not compatable with Windows Vista and now Windows 7?

I am curious to learn more behind your comments.

Windows7 Professional speakers problems after loading the new win7. Our Realtex related drivers from WinVista previous version for Home Premium Small Business on my husbands ZT brand computer. I have tried several so called fixes like getting sound drivers for Win7 nothing works. No sound when I insert a CD to listen, or microsoft computer sounds nothing works, computer help says everything is fine, which it is not.
