I don't have Vista but if you have My computer on your desk top right click it and select manage, then device manager. In the list of devices that then appear you will see teh problem items marked up. right click it and select update drivers.

I may be slightly astray with the wording as I haven't Vista but it should be about right.

Hope that helps.

Are you sure you just haven't disabled the audio device?

Right-click the Sound icon in the notification area, and choose Playback Devices. On the Playback tab, right-click an empty spot of the window, and put a checkmark next to "Show Disabled Devices" and "Show Disconnected Devices".

See if your sound device re-appears and you can re-enable it.

is there anything under "unknown devices" in device manager? will probably be called "multimedia audio controller"
