    I'm having problems trying to find a driver for the audio. Has anyone else successfully downgrade their laptop? I really don't wanna go back to vista. I got everything else working fine except this. Using EVEREST I found that its a SigmaTel CXD9872AKD. Using Google I haven't found any drivers for it. Can anyone help? I did install the kb888111 hotfix but no help.
