I think that Vista's SP1 caused my "No Audio Output Device is installed"
problem as well as my missing keyboard. Having not sound really sucks. And having to use an external USB keyboard on my laptop. I see other posts saying other things are missing - alanrco's "Digital Camera - really weird problem" for example. I use Vista Home Premium on my Acer 5610z laptop. I'm working with Acer support to try to get the drivers (or whatever is gone) back. My attempts are failing - is SP1 blocking them? Can I / should I attempt to uninstall SP1? How? |

If you uninstall SP1 and the problem goes away, then yes SP1 is the problem.
This is not official but from my observations laptops seem to be more prone to problems with the update. For me it was the opposite, I had problems before SP1 and none after. If you uninstall SP1 and the problem goes away you should wait till Winduws Update 'offers' it to you.

No "Sound" appears in my Device Manager, and "Keyboards" only reappeared after I plugged in an external USB keyboard.
