hey,

i just uninstalled my sound card driver.
I restarted my computer and it automatically installed again. The sound is not working. I have tried a lot of things. but nothing works. i have an acer veriton t661 (vista 32 bit), and my device manager looks like this: http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/...
before, there was a program running: rthdvcpl.exe. i used it to select whot boxes i wanted to use. but now it isnt running, and i cant get it to run.
yes, i have checked the mute button, and i reinstalled the drivers allready.
i would be really happy if someone could help me with this!!

Looking at the device manager picture suggests the driver hasn't installed correctly or is the wrong driver. The program rthdvcpl.exe is part of the Realtek audio driver and needs to run.
If you haven't already done so go here and get the latest driver for your machine..

Before running the setup, uninstall the existing driver then if prompted to, restart the computer. If Windows opens the 'Found New Hardware' dialog box, cancel it then start the Realtek setup program you downloaded, after unzipping it.
