Hey, the "original de-Vistafying thread" still lives! I would be more than glad to share my knowledge in solving this. I started that post and had it solved within a few days, then the post took on a life of its own! Unfortunately, some of the links don't work anymore, but can be wrangled out by trial & error.

For audio, go to:

http://support.gateway.com/support/drivers/dlcenter.asp

...and in the right-hand search box, type "Sigmatel". You will be presented with a list of drivers, mostly for Vista, but some for XP. Hunt and peck for something that works. This one is close

But you need to remember this notebook was designed to run VISTA ONLY so don't expect to find your exact driver for the exact model listed...it's a lot of experimentation.
Best of luck!
