Now in Windows 7 using all equivalent power-saving options it's hardly reaching 6 hours. The question being: is Windows 7's estimated battery life calculated more "long term" wise vs. Vista's "based on the current activity"? As of now it "appears" that Windows 7 is far behind Vista...

Also, I find that many of the settings, except for the most basic, such as turning off the screen and the computer after __ minutes work with legacy machines.

My laptop uses the Sigmatel HD Audio 64-bit driver and hasn't had any problems. However, this driver is not issued by Microsoft but rather this is a Vista driver released by Dell. Try the SoundMAX driver issued by your laptop manufacturer as well.

After some time with no sound playback audio device enters power state D3. Going back to D0 (full power) takes up to 10 seconds. In real life it means, that when I want to play some sound it can take up to 10 seconds before it starts playing. Is there any way to disable this power saving for audio device? It's most probably caused by the new Low Power Audio feature of Windows 7, because I didn't have any problem with it in Vista. I'm using built in MS driver.
