Same thing happened to my on my Gateway laptop. I went back to the SigmaTel
audio drivers and all is good again. Frankly, I don't know why I was
upgrading if the first place because my audio was fine.

The IDT audio update is due to an issue with Vista SP1. Many installs
have an older version of one of the driver files that is not compatible.
Unforunately, the one offered by Microsoft is screwing up many
computers.
The web page says it's for an Optilex 740, but internally it says this:

In addition, it works find on my XPS410, which is similar to the
Dimension 9200.
After updating my audio, I was able to download and install SP1 through
Windows Update. My only scare is that after the SP1 update, Windows
defaulted to a USB headset instead of my speakers. I had to go into the
Sound settings and change the default back.

Definition Audio CODEC and said it was "ready to use" but i am still
getting the No Audio Output Device installed, and my sound isnt
working.... does anyone know how to fix it? I would really really
appreciate the help.

You can't just roll back the driver - you need to go back previous restore
point.

Same thing happened to me. I just went back to the old driver and everything
was fine. Not sure why it did what it did
