However I cannot get the sound to work. I have tried to reinstall the software from the drivers supplied and the update from Sony but it will not recognise it. I just get unknown PCI device in device manager. <BR /><BR />Also whenever I try to uninstall Realtek I get an error right at the start saying the driver could not be removed (same message in safe mode). The speakers work as I get system beeps etc. <BR /><BR />I have tried to point the device manually to the install folder and to windows\system32 but cannot get a driver to work.<BR /><BR />Can anyone please offer any advice?<BR /><BR />Thanks in advance<BR /><BR />Dan<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 09 Aug 2005 00:25:02 GMT DanGreen771 2005-08-09T00:25:02Z No audio https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/no-audio/m-p/21953#M105989 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi, I have recently got hold of a Vaio FS215e and have upgraded the os to XP Pro sp2.
