All HP drivers found here: http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic100655.html

To find your Driver files
Click for the driver page listed by System Vendor

gene

went to site down loaded everything there and still no sound out of my sound card.
this is a laptop and I do not known the manufacture of the sound,graphics cards.

It is not required to know who the tiny internal original electronic parts of a proprietary manufactured laptop are. All the drivers are supplied by the laptop manufacture in question (being HP in this case)

If the sound drivers do not exist on the HP support page for your given laptop, then I would say contact them h e r e and ask for their whereabouts. As long as HP support the operating system for that particular laptop, they then must also carry the drivers, although not a legal requirement, this is still classed as basic support, of which HP adhere to.

In some cases though it may be that the drivers are found through Windows itself, and in this case a Windows Update (using Internet Explorer) would be required (under custom updates)

more info

they do have drives for this laptop, the only thing is that it came with vista and it now has xp,which they doe not have. I guess I will have to buy vista and reinstall it.

hang on... not yet.... let's try this

• Click Start->Run, enter: msinfo32
• Click the + sign next to Components to expand it
• Click Problem Devices. Anything appear?
• If yes, click on it, then Edit->Select All, Edit->Copy Paste into next post

Pretty sure that laptop is supported by HP on XP as well, have a look here:

Therefore again, the info above (Try HP and try Windows Update - minimum SP2) will work

here r the problems as requested

Also do not reply to yourself (ever) when your post is still the last post in the thread just use EDIT to add to your post (if you need to)

Edit:
I placed some text in Bold above, as you seem to have edited your previous post, which is not what I meant (your post is presently not the last post in the thread)
Please contact HP directly here: http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic100655.html
As advised in Post#2

re

I am working with them now. They suggested I try other means first. So that is what I am doing.

There are no "other means"
Contact them back and state they must know where they are, as they support XP and Vista for that model

re

Here is what I found out from HP.

HP does not support the downgrading of HP Pavilion and Compaq Presario computers from Windows Vista to Windows XP.

mine is a:
HP Pavilion dv6809wm Entertainment Notebook PC

Still checking with some outhers hope to find a fix.

Try the drivers on this thread: (they are for "Compaq CQ50" but might just work ) Last post in thread

Just saw your post. Based on the Problem Devices, will have a look at the drivers and will update you tomorrow. (am guessing i should be able to find the right drivers.. Or at minimum have detail about your driver problem tomorrow)

I went into the device manager and found the following. I hope this helps in finding a fix for my sound problem.

OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller has an ! in front of it.
HDAUDIO Soft Data Fax Modem with SmartCP has an ! in front of it.

Audio Device on High DefinitionAudio Bus has an ? in front of it.
Video Controller (VGA Compatible) has an ? in front of it.

Did you try the link I posted above? (last post in that thread)

Yes I did. Thank you. But it produced no results. I have system sounds but that is it. I was up till 12:30 AM CST trying to do a fix. I am back at it this morning.
