I just reformatted my Compaq Presario SR1900NX with XP Pro, didn't have Audio controls, so I remembered that I had to download Realtek ac97. Installed that, and still don't have any audio controls.

Sorry, I'm really impatient, I searched a little bit, but didn't find my problem.

Download and run Everest Home (it is free):

http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4181

Once you download it, click on it and let it install and then run it from the icon on your desktop and then click on 'Computer' then on 'Summary', then go to the VERY top of the screen and click on 'report', then 'quick report-summary' and then 'plain text' and save it then go to C:/programs/lavalys and open that folder then open Everest Home sub-folder and then reports sub-folder and click on the report.

This will open it in a text editor (probably Notepad) and then use your mouse to highlight ALL the debug stuff at the bottom of the report and delete it and then save that file again and then copy and paste it to here.

Problems & Suggestions:
Problem Disk free space is only 4% on drive C:.

The driver (original) is here:

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/s...190727&lang=en


To install drivers from the internet:

go into Windows Explorer, left click on Desktop, then File, then New and then Folder - name the folder XXXDrivers (where XXX = type, eg, AudioDrivers)

go to the site for your driver, find the RIGHT one for your mobo and OS,(click on the nearest site to you if appropriate) and then download button - when asked where to 'save' the download specify your desktop folder XXXDrivers and wait until the download is complete.

Once it is done, clear your screen and click on the desktop folder and then on the file inside - if it is a zip or rar file it will need to be unzipped or unpacked - make sure if you are asked to specify where to unzip/unpack to tell it to do so to the XXXDrivers folder.

Once you are done that, uninstall the old drivers for the device and then select the device and specify update drivers and direct the search to the folder you made (don't let Windows do it).

edit: I don't know for sure, but I suspect that you have an MSI board:

Thanks man, I downloaded the video driver as well and fixed my laggy games running only in software.
