    I assume you went to the manufacturer's web page for the laptop and
    downloaded any necessary drivers for said device from them for Vista?

    What brand of laptop, and what kind of sound card does it say you have in
    device manager? You might check to see if updated drivers are available on
    the manufacturers website.

    I have a similar problem with my Gateway laptop, but no updated drivers are
    available, so I had to use USB speakers which work independent of the sound
    card and work great.

    Right click the speaker icon in your sys tray and check that nothing is
    muted....
