◙ Here are hundreds of Discussion Groups for Microsoft products such as Internet Explorer, Outlook, Outlook Express and the list goes on and on. There is even a discussion group for the new Internet Explorer 7 beta.

Answer 3

I'm telling you - it's too early to be using vista - you are the guinea pig...... nothing but problems and fixes. Maybe you can reinstall your sound card driver. I hope your computer is Vista compatible - Optimum - dual-core processor, 1 gig of ram and a hefty video card......

Answer 4

Insure the sound drivers are installed. IF they are, the sound driver may not be compatable with VISTA. Welcome to the world of VISTA.
