    Okay ...I've been using the Triple Play XP guide to set up Windows XP Professional on my new dv6575us.

    So far I have everything working but the sound and the quickplay buttons. I've installed all of the sound drivers from the guide and any threads I could find here. The device manager says that the sound drivers are installed but there are no audio devices listed anywhere. Also, the quickplay buttons don't do anything :confused: .

    Has anyone had this problem?

    Did you install the "High Definition" audio driver from Realtek as well?

    I plan to do the same thing as you so I'm interested in how your situation turns out. Keep us posted. :)

    I sure did. ( Nice save, btw :) )

    I'm at work now but when I get home I'll mess with it for a while.
