448854 2006-04-23 18:56:00 Hi I'm new here I currently don't have sound on my laptop for some reason I can't install Realtek High definition audio device driver because it asks for Service pack 1 and I've spent 2 hours so far downloading different Realtek service packs and none are the one it's asking for

Could someone please give me a site w/ a working link so I can download it it's really frustrating looking for it

thanks

448855 2006-04-23 19:10:00 it's possible if not probable that he 'service pack 1' its asking for might be microsoft windows xp sp1.......if so then you are better installign SP2 instead.........find this at microsoft update site... drcspy (146)
448856 2006-04-23 19:13:00 I'm assuming you are running xp ?.......if you goto controlpanel/system what does it say ?

'microsoft windows xp home edition SP1' or similar ?.....(on the general tab) if it only says 'xp home ed' or 'xp pro' etc but doesn't mention a service pack then that'll be what you need...........

448857 2006-04-23 19:25:00 It just says Microsoft Windows XP professional 2002 no SP1 is there any other audio device compadible w/ the Vaio notebook? or can I just download the service pack from somewhere else? JB_13 (10275)
448858 2006-04-23 19:37:00 the most uptodate service pack for your sysetm is 'service pack 4'.....look at microsoft.com for it.. drcspy (146)

? XP isnt up to SP 4. It's only upto SP2. SP4 is for Windows 2000, NOT XP.

You have to get SP1 or SP2 FIRST JB. Before the sound drivers will install.
