Gateway systems shipped with Windows Vista are very difficult to find non-supported operating system drivers. Gateway doesn't post any on the machines drivers webpage and Sigmatel doesn't offer end-user support. That situation leaves you with try other drives. Problem is we have no clue what Sigmatel audio chipset was used and even if we did, it would most likely be a futile effort locating a driver that actually works. You can try the one's we have posted. Other than that perhaps someone has actually found a working driver and will post a link to it.

or you can see a list of Sigmatel Windows XP drivers by visiting this Gateway website: http://support.gateway.com/support/drivers/search.asp?param=Sigmatel&st=kw

:furious: I have also been looking for this darn driver for two days, and Gateway had nothing for help. But, the good news is that I found the correct driver that works after installing and removing forever.

But, I have finely found it, here it is: http://support.gateway.com/support/drivers/getFile.asp?id=20765&dscr=SigmaTel%20High%20Definition%20Audio%20Driver %20for%20Mickelson%20Trail%20MotherboardVersion:%2 05.10.5082.0&uid=17812100
