| 859702 | 2010-02-19 04:57:00 | You could try the realtek AC97 drivers here (www.realtek.com.tw). Uninstall all the other audio drivers you've installed first. Tick first then next | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 859703 | 2010-02-19 10:36:00 | No. doesn't work. | bk T (215) | ||

| 859706 | 2010-02-19 11:45:00 | I have no idea then. Unless its dead. One of them should have worked. If you uninstalled the previous drivers before you installed them | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 859707 | 2010-02-19 20:34:00 | I have no idea then. Unless its dead. One of them should have worked. If you uninstalled the previous drivers before you installed them I created a system restore point before installing the drivers, and every time I restored it before installing the 'new' driver. Every time the Realtek driver is installed halfway through (almost towards the end) the screen turns black, then computer restarts. And, when a Soundmax driver is installed, it halted halfway complaining that there isn't device found. The sound was working before I re-installed the OS, was just that it was full of junks and I thought that doing a fresh install will be great but ended up without sound. lol |

| 859708 | 2010-02-19 21:20:00 | I know this is a bit late :p But if it was an original HP install there is a hidden folder on the C Drive with all the drivers in it. BUT try this -- Make sure the chipset drivers are installed, being intel, it should be These here (downloadcenter.intel.com) infinst_enu. Once installed download This here (www.box.net) its only tiny. Its meant to be the audio Driver for that model of HP from Driverguide. Unzip them. Open Device manager, right click the audio, update driver- point to the file. IF its the right one you will have audio. If that doesn't work try This set of drivers (downloadcenter.intel.com) they are from Intel, which is what you chipset is |

| 859709 | 2010-02-19 23:05:00 | If for some stupid reason, they are not using AC 97 drivers, Page 3 (downloadcenter.intel.com) has the Soundmax for that chipset as well. | wainuitech (129) | ||

I did tried to download from Driverguide but somehow, it says I need to pay for the downloads - used to be able to get the free downloads, though. You're still able to get the free download from driverguide? As regards the HP's recovery partition, it has been deleted, no more there! Anyway, THANK YOU so much for your time and efforts. Speedy, I still have to thank you although you didn't 'actually' solved my problem, you've put in so much of efforts and time!:thanks |
