    So I upgraded to windows 7 and everything works fine but when I am in a fullscreen game (CoD 4 or WoW) I have no sound through the speakers. Using the HDMI for sound works, but as this is never really an option, this will not do.

    Any Ideas how to fix?

    Dell XPS M1530
    Intel Core Duo 2.2 GHz
    4098 MB RAM
    Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit
    nVidia GeForce 8600
    SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC (driver: 6.10.0.5609)

    Thanks!
