Sound - no sound card driver

I recently reinstalled windows xp sp2 on my hp pavilion a1600n. It seems that the original software, with which it came was xp media center ' 05 edition.

I go to download a game use any program that involves sound, and I get an error "Can't find sound card" or "If you have a sound card, make sure you and the card and all necessary software is installed.

Well, what software is there? My driver is missing? What's his name? D =

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

-The sound card is the original map of factory. Never changed. Just got the reformatted computer is everything.

Whenever you do a clean install of Windows (and it sounds like that's what you did), you MUST install the necessary drivers.  Windows XP incorporates some drivers, but certainly not all.  Go to the HP website, get the drivers and install them.  And don't forget to download and install XP sp3.

Note: Don't bother with this page or uninstalling the RAID driver BIOS updates and firmware (unless you have the referenced problem) but DO get and install the SP3 upgrade utility before installing XP sp3 if your computer has an AMD processor.  You may or may not need multimedia software.

  • Re: Qosmio F10 - impossible to reinstall the sound card driver

    Hello

    Recently, I uninstalled a program and my sound card driver has been uninstalled with it

    I'm running the Qosmio F10 with Windows XP.

    I have the file to reinstall the diver in the Toshiba page but when I try to install I get the error "driver is not found.

    Can someone help me?

    Thanks in advance

    The European Toshiba driver page provides audio driver for XP and at this time, it s a 5.12.0.1.5160 version of Analog Devices Inc.

    You must download, unpack and then run the installation exe.

    If it doesn't work then remove the sound card in Device Manager, reboot the laptop and check again.

  • Is there a way to know what makes a noise of grinding on my lap? I was told that my sound card driver may be able

    Sound card:

    No upgrade

    I recently did the upgrade of the driver of the Doc and found things that I didn't exist on my computer, which was given to me by my nephew.  He turns quiet and really did not have any complaints until after that I did the upgrade of the driver of the Doc.  Now, that sounds like a grinding machine.  I was told that when I talked about Facebook, I need to update my sound card driver.  I did a search to see what it means, but I am not prepared to do right now.  Can someone reassure me that it will be an easy fix?

    Could be a problem of fan cooling, remove the side cover of the tower and see if you can see or hear the sound is coming from.

    My advice would be the same. Certainly, it looks like a fan at the origin of the problem. Fans get older they intermittently can make noise. This would explain why you hear sometimes and not others.

    Furthermore, to see if your sound card, causing the noise (which I doubt), just turn off all your speakers when you hear the noise. If the sound stops immediately, it's actually a sound card related question.

    There are often several fans inside the computer.  There will be one which is part of the power supply. Sometimes one or more attached to the casing of the computer itself (usually the Panel that you remove the first and one on the front of the case.)  There will probably be one on top of the CPU (central processing unit), as well as on the video card.

    Not recommended advice (which I did before) - gently tap on the center of the fan that you suspect is making noise. Jiggleling it will sometimes make noise to stop. In this case, you know which fan needs to be replaced.

    Even worse advice (which I also done before) - take a small piece of wood (for example, a 1/4-inch dowel rod) and insert slowly into the fan to keep it from turning. If the noise stops, you have found the fan that needs to be replaced. Remove the stick to regularize quickly because he will always try to run and we don't want it burn.

    If you can't find that a fan is causing trouble you want to replace as soon as possible because it will eventually stop working and cause one or more components in your computer to overheat.

  • No sound from speakers after updating sound card driver

    Hello

    I recently had problems with my Dell Inspiron 9400/E1705 (vista 32-bit windows operating system). I couldn't get a USB microphone to work and I decided to update the sound card driver. I downloaded and updated what I thought, it was the right driver (sigmatel high definition audio codec) and since there is no sound from speakers. I followed the guide from Dell troubleshooting and disconnect any external devices and then click right click the mixer volume in the system tray, and then clicked on "open volume Mixer" and I get the message: no audio device installed. I went to the control panel to check the sound card driver and he told me that the codec sigmatel high definition audio works well and he has not updated. I unfortunately can't restore the system that system restore installation in my computer stopped working awhile (even when I start windows in safe mode) so I'm stuck. I think that I have installed the wrong driver for the sound card but don't find it not easy to understand which driver to search the dell support center. It seems that the audio card is called something like "HDAUDIO\func01_ & FRI etc. looks Chinese to me. Could someone help? I would be very grateful

  • Vista sound card driver.

    How can I get a driver that is compatible with vista for and sound blaster live! value sound card?

    People are always coming on the Microsoft Forums and ask for a device driver hardware for some piece of hardware that they would like to keep around after moving from an operating system to a newer version.  What needs to be understood (and it has been said time and again) is that support for a given product is the manufacturer of the product.  Yes - Windows (any version) has always come with some integrated drivers limited for many products - but there are literally hundreds of thousands of different pieces of equipment out there (million?) and Microsoft is not manufacturer a lot of them, nor does Apple, nor made any flavor of unix/linux, etc..

    Support for hardware devices comes from the manufacturer of said device - period.  If they decide they're going to stop putting the drivers for a given piece of hardware in Windows XP SP2, it's what they do.

    A lot of people have this perception that Microsoft should support their product because they "made in an earlier version of Windows" - but in truth - they do not have.  The manufacturer of the product and is provided to Microsoft driver to include with the release of the OS initially or at a later date (or not at all and they needed for the end-user to install.)

    Thus, the short of it: If you do not find an official driver for your device (Sound Blaster Live! The value in this case) for Windows Vista (a Microsoft operating system) then the manufacturer (Creative Labs in this case) gave to a few previous Windows OS.

    According to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_Blaster_Live! /
    "Unfortunately the map is not supported by Windows Vista unless the running sound in 5.1 surround sound setting..".

    Creative Labs does not have the software/driver for Windows Vista everywhere evident.  It seems that this is not supported.

    Something on that you get will be a hack and can have mixed results.

  • Installation problem in the virtual machine Windows 98 sound card driver

    Hello, all.

    I have bad to configure a virtual machine for Windows 98 is running VMware Workstation 7.0.1 in a 64-bit Windows 7 host. Normally, the operating system installed without error, and then I went to install the VMware tools. No problem here, either. I am then went to the Device Manager and, as expected, the sound card is driverless and listed under "other devices", with a question mark and named "PCI Multimedia Audio Device. I don't care because I knew that Windows 98 had no driver for the sound card workstation provides. I wasn't expecting to see another unknown device, however, this one called "PCI peripheral system. As recommended, I went to the website of Creative and sought "PCI 128. I found three different drivers there for the use of the device with Windows 98. Then, I installed the newest one and hoped it would also take care of the other unknown device. However, what happened is that I had a blue screen to complain the vxd ctpci9x (05). The sound card is now recognised as "Creative Sound Blaster PCI128" but had an exclamation point on the corresponding icon and did not work - no sound was available. The other device is remained unknown. I also tried the other two pilots, but the results were exactly the same.

    I enclose two screenshots, one of the blue screen and the other from Device Manager after installing the driver.

    Help, please.

Customer support TT tells me that I have to update the drivers... where and how can I do this? I thought that I had everything set to update automatically, and all must be current.

    Their support staff obviously have no idea what they are talking about. Is it supposed to be compatible with the version of Mac OS X you are using?
