    So yesterday I thought I would go ahead and see if there were updates available for sound/video on my 1505. Nothing for the video card but there was an update for the Audio. I updated the audio driver and now I have a problem. The sound is no were near as high as it was before I did this. On purchase I selected that software for HD audio or something and there was only one option for audio drivers on dells page so I just went with it...any help?

    Did you check all of your audio settings to make sure the sound levels are correct?

    You can either install the previous driver version (on your driver disk) or perform a system restore to get back to the old drivers.
