    Flash like in flash player for embedded ads on web pages etc. there? Sometimes when you hit just the right page a prompt for installing the Adobe Flash Player comes up. The other thing you will need would be Java runtime you download and install from SUN Microsystems own site for that. java.com: Java + You

    On the Adobe download page you'll see the individual items like reader and flash player available by clicking on each one at a time. Adobe - Downloads Look in the center under the "Readers and Players" heading.

    The add-ons for Fire Fox are found right on Mozilla's own site at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:7

    For the Adobe version of Flash Player go to Adobe - Adobe Flash Player

    Once there you'll see the dropdown list to select the OS you are running.

    Keep an eye out for any Vista updates since those will work if none are seen for 7 at some point(hopefully since laptops see a fast turnover!).

    I just got done looking over a Vista laptop with only 1gb of memory?! That's how it was originally sold and why I was asked to look it over since it was running sssssssslowwwwww.... errrrr then a certain brand of ketchup! At least that one already sees Vista 32/64 updates available.

    lol. Heinz . Since the laptop shipped with XP, and the model isn't current, I doubt there will be any vista drivers.I just ran the setup in XP SP2 Compatibility mode, I'll see what happens on the restart.

    I'm not coming up with any Aspire 5601 model but do see the Aspire M5600 and M5610 models instead showing Vista 32/64bit updates available for those desktop models. Acer Driver Downloads

    You're looking at desktops. 5600 is there under notebooks. Installing it under XP SP2 compatibility mode worked... Sound is OK now.

    You posted "5601" before not 5600. And I looked in both sections to see what updates as well as which catagory your model fell into.

    I'm glad to see the compatibility mode worked out for you anyways. That helped here to see 32bit XP drivers for a tuner card actually work on the 64bit RC!
