re: NO sound from hp laptop and can't find driver! Monday, October 10, 2005 at 8:09 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Rich Tietjens (11 messages posted) Drivers won't help; it's Windows that's broken. You need to perform an "upgrade/repair" install of Windows XP to fix it (which, as I said before, may not be possible with the disks provided by Hewlett-Compaqard). The basic Windows sound hardware interface has gotten screwed up somehow, and you can reinstall drivers until your hair turns white, but it won't work. Thus, legacy drivers won't work, the "right" drivers won't work, and neither will anything else. I'd venture to guess that even adding a USB sound device won't produce any sound. -- The Reluctant AD Admin On Friday, October 7, 2005 at 7:39 pm, gunney wrote: >I can't find drivers at their site.
