Well, a friend loaded a bootleg copy of Win 7 ultimate on my laptop a few months ago.. All aero stuff and all my audio worked fine.

My company recently got the Windows action pack. We have 10 copies of Win 7 Pro.

I reloaded it to have a legal copy. At first after activation. The Aero preview window was grayed out. I updated the driver
and that now works, but I have no sound on the PC.

The little speaker in the bottom right corner near the clock, says "No Audio Output Device is installed, when you hover over it.

When I click on the speaker it opens the troubleshooter and the results say. Hardware changes might not have been detected.

I have an Intel Pentium M processor 1.73 GHz, and the audio is onboard..

Any suggestions on what driver I can load to make sound work??

I went to Intel but found that I'm not as smart as there menus.

Help
Vinny

have you updated windows, go into start--> all programs--> windows update then check the optional updates to see if there is an audio driver update for it.

Clean install?
If so, did you install chipset driver?
What computer brand and model is it?

I reloaded it clean I think.... I hope... I did update the video driver because at first the aero feature did not work. Then I noticed the sound not working.

I did not load any chipset drivers.. not sure how or what to load.
