    Things processing shouldn't be a big concern unless they are using a lot of CPU or memory. Are they?

    No issues with the sound on mine, other than I wish it was louder.

    I use HP Support Assistant to get new drivers.

    But what seems to be the problem people have with the sound to get the IDT? what does that do?
