    Hello everyone

    I recently bought a FZ21Z and downgraded from vista to xp. Almost everything went rather smoothly. Except for the sound card. I get this odd behaviour from it. The audio codec shows as installed properly but it does not play any sound (except, and this is what strikes me as odd: the win xp start up sound does play :) ).

    I've installed the drivers from the fz21 since those are the only xp drivers close enough to my model.

    Do you have any experience / ideas what to do?

    Thanks in advance.

    I take it that you have checked the advanced / master volume controls?
