Check with the Acer Support, their documentation and online drivers.

It's probably the pilots who are responsible and who may not really be later or they need to be
re-installed anyway. The best way is to manually review using the methods below.

References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

Control Panel - device - SOUNDS - look for HD Audio Manager - Mine said RealTek High
Audio definition (this is an example and you can have an other name/maker).

Write the description and the model double click on it - tab drivers - write down
Version. Now click on update drivers who cannot do anything as MS is far behind certifying
drivers. Then CLICK RIGHT on it and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver
stack.

You can have the default windows or a former certified pilot and it's all or part of the
issue.

Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of the system and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to
where you put - right-click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN-

Check the Version tab of the driver in the Device Manager as the restoration of the sound card drivers often
and then install the latest version. Restart and check after each test, not
rare to have to run the pilot of 1 to 4 times or more. Just the version make sure you
installed shows upward on the tab of the driver.

Go to the site of the manufacturer of the device, and then search for the even more recent drivers and install repeat
operating mode. Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - click on - RUN AS
ADMIN - Reboot

Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

Installation and update of drivers to 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above is)
to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are are preferably)

---------------------------------------------------------

After the updated driver.

Click with the right button on the speaker near clock - recorders - right click in the box - check see the
Disconnected devices and show disabled devices - check your micro - highlight
then on lower right properties. Make sure that the appropriate injector is selected and check
other parameters - levels tab make sure that MUTE is disabled and APPLY / OK to change
.

Also in the search for some Audio Manager Panel (perhaps named after the manufacturer of the sound driver). Mine
is the RealTek Audio Manager, yours can be quite different name if you have one.
