    If you have sound and are just missing the icon in the system tray, go to start/control panel/sounds and audio controllers. In volume you will find a tick box to place the volume control in the task bar. Tick it, click apply and it should appear in the system tray.

    Here are the drivers for your computers chipset. I think these should do the trick, if not please post back.

    Address: http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scri...?ProductID=816

    Once you have selected your Operating System, you need to download and run file number 1 which is the most recent version of the driver.

    I just posted a reply about an hour ago... for some reason it didn't send.

    I believed the attached file contains the correct drivers. Download it to a convenient location, right click it and select Extract All... Follow the extraction wizard and open the output folder. Right click the file oem34 and click Install. This should be a silent process which means you won't receive any confirmations or prompts. If you do receive confirmations agree to them. You will not be told when the drivers have been installed, so give it 5 minutes and then restart your PC. Report back on how it went
