*Note, KB941050 is an article that require special user credential.

For the article KB944436, it is mentioned that a portable computer that has Windows Vista installed will encounter a low volume issue. In fact, this issue affects all the computers with low-powered speakers commonly found on laptops. A normal desktop that has low-powered speakers may also encounter this problem. If your computer happens to encounter this issue, you can also apply this fix for Windows Vista.

As alwasy, please feel free to submit your comments to us. We will check the comments and try our best to implement needed changes.

Best,
