Hi, i just purchased a new medion laptop from aldi.
I removed my vista and installed my win xp. I had some problems first with recognizing my hd's because of the SATA thing, my xp didn't recognized the hd's. So i made some bootcd with xp with nlite to install those drivers
Now everything works except my sound drivers, i tried already to download this driver Realtek Semiconductor Corp. High Definition Audio System Software Ver:R1.67 on the medion site, but still nothing, windows already installed sound drivers and it doesn't work i also can't remove it, i only can update it. But it always says that the drivers are already been updated.
I only get the beep sound when i get a warning, sound worked fine on vista.
I think maybe if i remove the sound drivers some how and install the drivers from the site, it maybe will work again. Someone can help me ?
