What is your full model number of your 51. Have you checked out this thread http://www.toughbooktalk.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=853 . Sounds like a driver problem to me. What does device Manager show under sound. My CF-51 MK3 under "Sound, Video and game controllers" says "SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC"
