Having installed Vista SP1 - as a pre-requisite to installing SP2 - I have lost my on-board sound ( Asrock Motherboard). I've done all the usual Control Panel tweaks, downloaded updated drivers from Realtech and lots more besides, all to no avail. Would installing SP2 work ? Or is it give up and do a System Restore ?

[MRRennie]

Installing Vista SP2 did the trick - sound seems to be fully restored !

Hey - I've solved my own problem !!

Thanks, Lisa - sorry, I just realised it sounded like I was boasting, whereas it was more luck than skill - I'd previously tried three times to install SP1 and had to do the dreaded System Restore each time to regain my sound

Lisa,

Rest assured - I've got this site in my Favourites and I'll be looking in regularly to see (a) what I can learn from experienced "Tech Guys" and (b) I've solved lots of my own problems in the past, and MIGHT just be able to help someone, somewhere !

Regards,

Mike
