Hello! I put XP Pro on my Acer Aspire X1700-U3700A (and it runs much better than with Vista).

Only trouble, the sound has disappeared!

It says the sound device is missing. However, in trying to download a new one, the Acer site only has one for Vista.

Any suggestions? Your help is much appreciated.

Thank you very much. Will try this. Meanwhile, I think the video driver also may have gone. Any suggestions on that? Again, thank you.

That is a easy stuff. just go to acer.com, then select support and downloads the sound driver. The downloading takes like 10 mins and just wait until is done. Then run it and the sound will be on your speakers like magig. regards.

you can also try downloading the latest drivers from realtek's site and not ACER's.
