    Ok, our Santa Rosa 965 chipset should have Intel HD audio... However when I look at my installed drivers it says SIGMATEL 96XX DRIVER. What is sigmatel, and why don't I have some Intel Driver for audio? Ok, I know sigmatel makes some audio stuff but seriously, should we be using an Intel Driver?

    Thanks,

    SXO792

    Sigmatel is the company that makes the audio chipset...
