I had the same problem with my imamac 27 end XP w bootcamp. There was a topic for this but I dont know why a "moderato" decided that the problem was solved and closed it when the "solution" was using old sound drivers and a old patch.
I solved it on my imac 27 bootcamp simply by palyng arround with the options in control panels - sound: There were two devices for playback and recording:
- Ati HD Audio Rear Output.
- Cirrus Logic HD Audio
Well, all I did was choose the second one (Cirrus) for both playback and recording, and then check the empty box(es) Line in and/or DPDIF and/or Mic, under recording.
Once again: CIRRUS. Forget ATI. Check all the boxes. All 4 boxes in playback and all 3 boxes in recording. And the sound is back. Hope it helps for those with this problem in W7.
Wich, by the way I coul not install on bootcamp I've tried a couple of times with a couple of releases but it allways frozen at samepoint with dark screen. Is there a trick to make it work. Is there a release that works? Thosse I've tried with were MDSN (or something like it) Diod you guys used a "legal"-in the box version?
Moderators: before kicking me think twice when you decide that a problem is solved or not. Take a look at this:

This is not a solution. It´s a workarround. Leave the topic open until Apple solves the problem. I bought a 1500 euros machine and I want it to work pefectly. Not with tape, glue and ropes all arround!
I am sorry if I go agains't any of the forum rules but it´s the first time I write here and I use Apple computers since my first performa 6400. And there is one think called freedoom of expresssion.
