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!

  • AUDIO DRIVER of compaq presario f761us for windows XP

    where can I down load the audio driver for windows XP.
    my notebook is compaq presario f761us.
    ps: there is no audio driver in HP's web sit as below,
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=228&lc=en&cc=au&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=36787...
    Thank you.

    Hi:
    I looked around and all I could find were audio drivers for Windows Vista. 
    If you can connect your notebook to the internet, I recommend you download and run this free tool called Device Doctor. It has helped me out lots of times.
    It will scan you computer and then find the drivers from a database somewhere in cyberspace.
    Hopefully it will point you to the XP audio driver. I don't recommend you update any drivers that are working but for ones that you can't find, you have nothing to lose.  Again, your notebook must be connected to the internet for this to work.
    Link to the Device Doctor Portable is below:

  • Require Help Obtaining Audio Driver for Compaq Presario SR1429UK desktop

    Hi,
    Really hoping someone can assist me obtaining the Realtek High Definition Audio driver for the Compaq Presario SR1429UK desktop.
    I've obtained a second hand SR1429UK and it has been rebuilt but I have been unable to install the audio driver. I've tried downloading it from the compaq site but the sp26552.exe update driver which is available does not work and reports errors on installation. From the Compaq site, the only available driver is the update driver and there is no available download of the 'original' driver which is sometimes available for other models.
    I've tried using the other SR1429 drivers (ES, FR, IT, NX etc) but they don't seem to be compatible.
    I also don't have to the recovery disk or compaq application recovery installed as it's a clean WinXP Pro build.
    ANy ideas where else I can obtain this driver?
    Cheers, Jeremy

    Hi,
    It seems you are trying to download the driver update of the audio drivers. Please try downloading the original drivers from the following weblink:

  • Audio Drivers for compaq presario V2000

    Hi,

    Hi:
    Those ID's confirm that your notebook has the Conexant AC-Link audio chip.
    OK...here is what I did. A little detective work...
    I like to use the free 7-zip file utility to extract the component files from the exe.
    When I extracted the files from the driver that is posted by HP for your model that I linked you to above, here is the hardware ID for the Conexant Audio chip the driver supports.
    [Conexant]
    %*WDM_AMCAUD.DeviceDesc%=WDM_AMCAUD,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_266E
    As you can see, this driver supports a different Conexant audio chip than the one in your notebook, because the hardware ID you posted is PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_4370
    So, I googled the hardware ID and found several drivers that had the main ID of PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_4370, but they had a different &SUBSYS number.
    I had to download and extract the files from a few of them before I finally found one that matched the exact hardware ID as yours which is PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_4370&SUBSYS_3091103C
    Please see if this one works...

  • No audio in my Compaq Presario CQ56- can I replace it?

    The audio just stopped.  On troubleshooters everything else is apparently OK and the problem does not show up in the device manager.  Is there a replaceable part?  It is of course just out of warranty.

  • 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.
