Good day Amity Waisel!
I am facing the same problem and cannot find any solution. Asus Technical
Support could not help finding a solution. I tried everything including using
the recovery DVD and reinstalling all C drive ... nothing works. Did you
manage to find a solution? I believe the problem might be with the audio
driver incompatible with Windows Vista ... but this is just a guess.

Any solution or advise will be warmly welcome.
