Your right mate no info really.
Here we go then. Audio device keeps disappearing.A Small red x next to the sound icon on the task bar. Now and again Recovery manager via hard drive reinstaller gets it back but not always. Device manager doesn’t allow me to update driver or uninstall hardware because the sound device which is conextant on vista disappears from amongst the list enabling me to update the hardware settings and driver software. Have used different search engines,when i do retrieve sound such as Google chrome and firefox.Sound will just cut out or other times a site will say plug in has crashed. I update the shock player the particular site recomends,no joy.I have updated Adobe flash players on firefox.Funnily enough My Laptop wont let me uninstall Conextant HD Audio via control panel it just sits there untouchable amongst the Programs and features. New laptop for Crimbo methinks..
