What can I do?

For this audio driver to work, your audio plugs must be on the I/O plate as shown here http://www.overclockeddoc.com/bookwo...0io%20slot.JPG

Audio is Realtek, go here http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...tDown=false#AC

Set a System Restore Point before installing drivers just in case
Start / All Programs / Accessories / System Tools / System Restore / select Create a restore point and follow instructions
