need help big time!!! i am having troubles with windows updates and a
microsoft tech told me to uninstall anything to do wit sigmatel. i take it
that sigmatel has something to do with the sound because now i do not have
any. i sent them back an email but they have not got back to me yet. can
anyone tell me what to do to get the sound back?
 
Assuming you uninstalled sigmatel from Device Manager, restart your computer
and let it reinstall.
Regarding your problem with updates.

Uninstall the recent updates. Restart. If this solves your problem,
reinstall one at a time, testing as you go, until you find the culprit.
For future reference, do not automatically install updates. Choose the
option “Download updates for me, but let me choose when to install themâ€

microsoft tech that was trying to help told me that sigmatel might be the
cause of the problem and to uninstall it, leaving me with no sound. I am
still waiting to hear back from them to correct this problem

What firewall, anti-virus application or security suite is installed? There
are some that cause problems which do not appear immediately.

hi Bob. I just have the windows vista firewall that came with the computer,
and i run the shield deluxe 2008 as an anti-virus program. I also have spy
sweeper which i run on occasion. As for my problem with no sound, i did a
system restore and got the sound back while i wait for the microsoft tech to
reply. Thanks for trying to help.
