    Well the only issue i'm having since my downgrade is no sound. I have tried so many things and it just won't work. Here's a recap:

    System: A205-S5804

    Drivers installed: Driver from Realtek site. Intel driver, drivers i've found from various users.

    Issue: Device manager shows no flags for sound, video and game controllers. But listed in them are: Audio Codecs, Legacy Audio Drivers, Legacy Video Capture Devices, Media Control Services and Video Codecs. These sound like generic XP stuff.

    When I goto sound in the control panel everything is greyed out. Please help! This is the only thing left for my downgrade but I need the sound! Should not be this hard for simple crap like this.
