I have an Acer x1700. I installed XP to get rid of Vista and now the sound and video are gone. It says there are "no devices." Can you please tell me what I need to download to get them back? Your help will be much appreciated.

Have you tried support at the Acer website?
Hardware manufacturers often have driver downloads for the devices / computers they make.

Thank you for responding. Yes, I tried the Acer site but they only have downlaods for Vista, which is what came with the machine. Do you have any other thoughts?

download Everest and post your notebook specs:

Open it, click Computer, then Summary.
In upper menu, go Report>Quick Report-Summary
Save it in text file, and paste it in your next post.
Don't include anything under line Debug - PCI
