Compaq Presario C794WU Audio Sux

I formatted my lappy last month n installed XP SP2 (HP no longer supports XP   ) As they dont support XP, I had to get drivers from somewhere else. Earlier, the sound used to come together thru the headphone and the speakers. Now the speakers have stopped to work.
I'm running mad..
Help Me.

    hi am using compaq presario c700 audio drivers are there in laptop but am not able to get sound from laptop could you please advise

    I noticed this is your first post, a comprehensive post just for asking XP drivers.
    Please read XP downgrade guide, part 2, here
    Your model, somehow forgot to be listed in part 2, but in general, part 2 should work for your model.
    Read the guide so that you knew the advantages/disadvantages installing XP for your model.
    About your request, try the following drivers
    1.For Intel 965 Express Chipset Family, Here
    2.Conexant High-Definition SmartAudio 221 Driver
    Driver modded by silver here
    Unzip to a folder..use Device Manager,right click "Audio Device on HD",choose Update driver,
    No to connect,
    Install from a list or specific location,
    Select Don't Search, I will choose the driver to install,
    For the Hardware Type select 'Show All Devices'
    Remove the check from "Show Compatible Hardware" and click on "Have Disk".
    Next...browse to the unzipped folder and choose the "WiSVHe5.inf".
    Ignore XP when it complains.
    Reboot.
    Please post again If you found the mic and external speaker are not working perfectly.

  • Compaq Presario C754CA Audio & Graphic Drivers?

    Compaq Presario C754CA
    Specifications: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01297770&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=3650105&os=228&lang=en
    Date Bought: 1-2 Years Ago
    Original Operating System: Vista
    Current Operating System: Windows XP Professional SP 3 [Version 2002]
    Well, I noticed that HP and Compaq do not supply Windows XP Drivers. I have managed to install the following things:
    Intel Pro [for WiFi]
    Broadcom
    Intel Chipset
    Intel Graphics
    Synaptics Touch Pad
    Microsoft UUA Audio Driver Bus
    Now, I'll just tell you now: I do not know which of the following is my Audio but I have tried both and both have failed.
    Realtech HD Audio
    Conexant Audio Driver
    I install them and I get to the end, and I receive an error about "MEDIA" not being found, thus it stops. I then proceed to the next step: force updating through the Device Manager - Only the Audio doesn't show up on my Device Manager! Originally it did, but now it has refused to appear, thus stumping me further. I will say that even when it was there, though, it refused to update, and claims that "This device has failed to start". 
    I have tried IDENTIFYING my Audio Driver for better results through Aida32, Driver Detective, and Driver Scanner. Not only was Driver Detective useless, but the other two either couldn't download / install the proper driver, or didn't even display that there was an Audio device on my PC at all!
    As for the Graphic Driver, I do have it installed, but it won't launch games for me, such as Ragnarok Online, Lineage II, etc. These games are properly done in Set-Up to launch with Direct 3D HAL; the Mobile Chipset is apparently bullcrikes and I've always used Direct 3D HAL / HAL x2 or whatever it was. 
    - Questions!
    1) Where can I find the name of the Audio Device on my Presario C754CA laptop?
    2) Where can I find the driver of the Audio Device on my Presario C754CA laptop?
    3) Why does my laptop refuse to launch games I could previously launch on Vista?

    I would appreciate either a more in-depth guide than written above or a brand new solution... and links to drivers I need. 
    [Edit]
    I'm pretty sure my Audio Device is actually:
    Conexant  High Definition Audio-Venice 5045
    What do I do to install this properly? 
    [Edit2]
    Here's an image of what my Device Manager looks like:
    http://i651.photobucket.com/albums/uu233/Yusshin/Audio.png
    The "Conexant High Definition Audio-Venice 5045" that you see was installed on an Unknown Device that I don't know what the heck was honestly :\ And there are still 2 unknown devices there; I have nothing connected other than a USB Wi-Fi thing for my mouse and my keyboard. In total, there were 3 Unknown Devices; I just randomly selected one to find the ID of my Audio Device.
    Please help me; I'm a Gamer and I hate Vista. I don't want to go back to it.
    [P.S.] You may notice that I have a Vista skin; I am running XP so do NOT get confused ^^

  • Compaq Presario C571NR Audio Problem

    Ok, Vista was on my laptop when I bought it.  I have a Compaq Presario C571NR.  Downgraded it to XP after I did all of the research for the drivers.  Worked great.  I now have upgraded to Windows 7, I love it.  Onlyl problem is that the speakers pop when I power down my laptop and my quick launch buttons do not work.  Help.

  • No audio in Windows Vista Home Basic - Compaq Presario c765TU

    Hi all,
    A couple of days ago, my Compaq Presario c765TU lost audio while fastforwarding through a movie I was playing on VLC. The video was stored on an external hard drive. Tried playing music and video files stored on the laptop's local drive, still no sound.
    Audio drivers and BIOS have been updated. Audio devices are listed as installed and working properly in the Device Manager.
    Contemplating on doing a clean re-install of Windows Vista to see if that will work. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    It's hard to know exactly which it is at this point.  It could be one of two things.  The speakers have failed or the jack detect pin located inside the headphone jack has failed.  A non-functional jack detection pin would cause the system to route audio to the headphone jack constantly instead of the internal speakers.  
    If you want to be absolutely certain it is not a software issue (corrupted registry possibly), you can try the system recovery making sure to backup your files.  I suspect this is a hardware issue, but it could very well be a corrupted registry causing the jack detection pin not to be read properly.

  • No audio on my Compaq Presario F750EL

    Hi everyone, I've some troubles with my audio system.
    This morning I was on Youtube watching a video; I closed the page for a while, then I tried to watch again the same video and I didn't get any sound (I tried even with headphones, but I can't still hear a thing).
    On my speaker icon there's a red cross, if I put my cursor on it, it says "No AudioDevice Installed". 
    So, I went to my local support site (I'm Italian) and tried to fix the problem by going on Start>services.msc>Windows Audio>right click, but then I couldn't click on the Start button as I was supposed to.
    I then tried to download the driver for my notebook. At first, I let HP check for me if I needed any but then, as it said I didn't, I downloaded myself the only audio driver possible for my version (I checked and put the right operative system).
    However, when I try to install the driver, it runs properly until it says that the driver cannot be installed because it can't find the device for this driver.
    N.B.: I haven't uninstalled my previous driver and I haven't downloaded any upgrade lately, my audio just switched off for no reason apparently.
    Honestly I'm not that good with computers so, please, explain clearly; I also hope that I was enough clear and the terms were right as I translated everything at my best.
    Thanks a lot in adance for a quicl response!
    Best rgds
    My computer is a  Compaq Presario F750EL
    (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&objectID=c01366233)
    My operative system is Windows Vista 32bit
    I downloaded  this diriver: Driver Conexant HD-Audio SmartAudio 221
    If you need more info tell me.

    i did the restore, too, and it didn't work. that's what baffled me! imagine restoring to factory default and the audio still does not work? i must admit that i did download one of the updates and got the audio working. it was temporary because as the Windows Vista updates were being applied, at one point I lost audio again.
    i did a bit more research last night and found an interesting post. it requires manually amending some files, so i'm okay to give that a try. as this has been quite the issue to troubleshoot, i will post a solution if I find it. i don't want to settle on this... don't give up!

    You're very welcome.
    Looks to me like you have to manually install the XP audio driver as follows...
    Download and run this file.  If it installs the audio, great.  If not...close out of any error windows.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-18403-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
    Go to the device manager and click on the multimedia audio controller needing drivers.
    Click on the driver tab.  Click on Update Driver.  Select the Browse my computer for driver software and browse to:
    C:\SWSetup\sp27325\SMAXWDM\W2K_XP\smwdmNV8, and select the SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio device from the list and see if the driver installs that way.
    Then reboot.
