    Hello everyone,

    I just bought a N100 (0768-A52) this Sunday and as soon as I opened the box, I found out the audio drivers don't work. Fine, so I reinstalled Windows and hopefully it will clear up the problem. It turns out it did not. I read elsewhere that the audio driver that Lenovo put up (REALTEK) is not the correct one. Rather it should be SoundMAX from AnalogDevices.

    The problem now is, the realtek driver installed well, no complaints from vista, but I don't hear any sound, unmute was off and volume is at maximum. When I try to install SoundMAX driver, it gives me an error saying "Driver not Found" at the end of installation.

    I was hoping someone who went though this before can give me some directions on where to proceed...

    Thanks
    Dennis
