    So where can i find the activation key, cant seem to find any in my welcome pack or anywhere else
    on the laptop.

    Spec:

    Hopefully THX will boost the sound somewhat, very low when gaming. Have to lean over the speaker to catch what the NPC's are saying in Skyrim for instance..

    When I activated my copy of THX I didn't need to enter the activation code as it was already pre-keyed into the app. Try clicking on activate (or whatever the button is) and see if that works.

    I can second that, when I installed the THX software the key was blank but I clicked on activate and it did, I've installed it twice now due to replacing my HDD with no problem.

    Just make sure you also install the Realtek HD audio manager too if you haven't yet and set it to 5.1 speaker config. After this you can play around with the THX settings, it really does make a difference.
