"Yaaaaayy!! It worked!!"
Version: VIA Vinyl AC'97 Codec Combo Driver 7.0b (09/11/2007)
Pros
My computer now has sound!
Cons
None so far
Summary
I had to restore my computer and when I did, the sound did not work. After searching and trying my computer's manufactor's web support (which was a waste of time) I was just as confused as ever. I've used this site a few times before for different things, and decided to give this driver a try. I'm not a genius when it comes to computers, but I do know a little.
Thank you rachsjc for your detailed instructions! I was able to download and install the new driver in minutes! Thank you, thank you thank you!! :-) -

"Improved sound quality on my computer at least 100%"
Version: VIA Vinyl AC'97 Codec Combo Driver 7.0b (09/11/2007)
Pros
Does what it says it will do: works with drivers I need for my computer configuration (I have chipset) to give best sound quality for my applications.
Cons
Have to reinstall/update any sound app/driver after installing the VIA program (took me awhile to figure this out)
Summary
It does what it says it will do, does not take up much room on the computer, does not need to be fiddled with every time I boot up - basically user friendly.
