Windows Vista SigmaTel Audio Problem
If you are running Windows Vista SP1 and are using a SigmaTel sound card, you should not install a recent IDT update named “IDT High Def Codec” from Windows Update as you are bound to lose your audio as reported by users here.
The users who have reported this are using Dell computers and people are still waiting for an official announcement about compatability drivers to fix this error from either Microsoft or Dell.

I have had problems with Vista SP1 and my audio…i have no sound in youtube, but my cd’s will play ok…I have attempted to download and install new/old drivers….with no results….I have used system resore to earlier dates with no help…Needless to say i am frustrated to the max.
