Lenovo Y510 audio

The audio has never been too good. Signal to noise is low, and I like to run it through my amp to practice songs, and thinking about making a demo CD soon. Interestingly enough,under audio devices, I have 3 speakers I can select from,  and a "digital output device". All claim high definition. The one that plays the loudest through the laptop speakers won't play through the headset jack at all.

 

I'm using the Microsoft drivers, Vista (don't laugh, it has worked for me... mostly). Any suggestion as I browse for better? Thanks.

Made so much sense I shouda thunk of it m'self!

 

I got the IBM drivers, listened to some mpegs. Sounds better (wishful thinking?) I think...

Busy day tomorrow, will really know more when I plug into amp in a couple of days.

 

Thanks for stating the obvious, sometimes I get so obtuse.
