HP Pavillon dv2500 no sound card

Hi
im new here in this site

im asking for some help about the laptop one of my customer
I hope you will respond me..

btw.
the problem is cannot install the audio driver after he downgrade
his laptop from vista to windows Xp sp3
I got the driver in hp support the microsoft UAA bus driver for HD
and conexant universal device
no problem in the installing of UAA bus driver but
when I install the conexant the problem appear
and says error
driver installation failed:Could not find the MEDIA device for this driver

I try to run dxdiag and find the sounds
but nothing appear any sound devices

I would like to get some idea if the problem
is the hardware sound card or just only the audio driver

thank you
 
You will need to find Xp drivers , You can do this by going to www softpedia.com or going to the manufactures web site for each device. Or you could go to https://www.slimwareutilities.com/index.php and download there free software drivers program. The card maybe bad but it just maybe the case of the drivers. I have had this happen when switching from vista to XP. Goodluck.

  • On the other hand, if no devices are listed, tell me so
Generate and attach a DirectX report
  • Click Start->Run, enter dxdiag and click OK
    ===> If you’re running 32 bit Windows, dxdiag will launch on its own
