    I'm having issues with the IDT Driver/Software for my Dell Studio 1535. When I first installed Windows 7 Pro 64bit (doing a clean install from Vista Home 32bit), IDT (which according to Dell works on Win 7 and Vista for both x86 and x64) installed no problem. Now, I just clean installed Win7 again because of something I did, it either doesn't install saying no hardware supported or it does install but doesn't work properly causing the audio not to run. I don't know whats any different between now and then that it is giving me issues. I even did another clean reinstall just to be sure and I'm still having the same issues. I'm running on the default drivers from Win7 and have to rely on its settings. I'm just worred my mic won't work properly when using Skype for chatting. I think it will, but I don't have a mic to plug in right now. I know the built in array works. I can live without IDT if the mic will work properly, it just doesn't make any sense as to why it won't work now.
