Re: Adobe can't find supported audio device

Are you by any chance running a 64bit version of Vista on your laptop? Have you installed the Audition 3.0.1 patch? I dug around through a few different forums (including Adobe's) and there seems to be a pattern of Audition 3 having noted compatibility issues with Vista 64bit. Installing the 3.0.1 patch seems to be a hit-or-miss solution to the issue for a few people. Do you know specifically what the audio card is in that laptop?
I'm sorry if I seem bring more questions than answers. I haven't seen the issue myself (I'm running on Visa too, though 32bit), but I do want to help track down a solution to your predicament so I'm mainly trying to get some data to work with.
