    I have managed to get every driver for my 6831fx laptop, with the exception of the idt audio driver. I have tried every source I can think of, and about 10 different drivers, but cannot find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as even Gateway does not have the original vista audio driver on their website.

    Ok... I still havent gotten a functioning driver, but I do have my hardware ID: HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_111D&DEV_76B0

    Ive tried drivers from sony's website that have that precise string listed in the inf file, and the sound card still shows up as code 10, cannot start device. Ive already tried this on xp sp2 and xp sp3 with the requisite KB patches for uaa audio.
