    Hey guys,

    I was able to get my audio and camera mic working on my P-7811 after I ditched Vista in favor of XP Pro SP3. It works great, except...

    In the volume control, my volume slider no longer does anything. The slider is still affected by the touch pad above the keyboard, but it's rendered useless. My volume is now controlled by the Wave slider only, completely independent of the volume setting.

    I'm sure it's probably a simple registry tweak, but I'm not sure where it's located. Any suggestions? Thanks! :)
