    Hello guys!...

    I just ask me if someone has a new Sigmatel drivers for windows 7? Right now I am using the latest drivers from sony ftp page, which are also posted in the 1st post here.
    But I have no HDMI sound on my VAIO FZ. I can see HDMI device in my playback devices, but I cant set HDMI as default playback device (the button is always gray).

    I also checked the modded Sigmatel/IDT drivers on laptopvideo2go site, but they do not work.

    To use HDMI audio out I always have to reset the audio driver to the Microsoft's one, which came standard with windows 7, but there I only have stereo sound and not full 5.1 range.

    So if someone has an idea for the solution of this problem, pls post here!

    Cheers,

    blondewalker
