    So, my acer aspire 3680 came with vista basic and vista was making it run so slow. I uninstalled vista and installed xp. Now everything is running smoothly except for the audio. I've downloaded many audio drivers, but they don't work including the one on acer.com. Anyone know what audio driver I should download?

    Google a program called hardware info. run it to find out what chipset precisely is used in the audio device.

    Then google the audio device to find the correct drivers.
