Unknown devices usually have to do with a utility driver. Download all utility drivers for your machine at Acer's support site and this should take care of it. When you hit the right driver it will find and tell you exactly what the unknown device is.

- Sorry , missed the no sound. I've had a few Acers come through my shop that we took out Vista and put in XP. I had to find the make and model of the sound card, and go to the manufacturer's site to get the sound drivers. Search driverguide.com for the sound driver. First search by the model of your machine, then, if you can't find it, search by the make and model of the sound card. If the unknown device is still there after you find the sound driver, then it may be some little feature that's use with Vista. If the machine works properly, don't worry about it.Jul 24, 2008

- Have you checked the sound setting? Make sure that they are set for the laptop speakers. If you've done this also, then I'm going to say that this is a hardware problem with the speakers. You might check the connections to see if they've worked loose.Yes
