Welcome to windrivers blahgrldia. Boards with the Intel AC'97 Controller also have an AC'97 codec made by either Realtek or ADI Soundmax. These are different than the software audio codecs you listed. To make the problem worse, neither Everest, Sandra, or any other hardware detection program I'm aware of seems to detect the codec model. So, we need to know the make and model of your computer and/or motherboard so we can locate the driver for your codec.

how do i do that??

[NooNoo]

Well, if you look in everest, there is an icon for the motherboard.

Also if your computer was made by people like dell, hp, compaq, tiny, etc... post the full model number of the computer.

my comp is made by HP and is Windows XP home edition. how do i find model number?

[NooNoo]

You look at the label on the back of the machine, or the invoice or the user manual.

According to my research this is the spec for your board (http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/genericDocument?lc=en&cc=us&docname=bph07029)

Models that use this board are

540n, 551w, 552w, 552x, 560w, 711a, 720d, 721a, 721d, 731a, 731k (ap), 732m, 740d, 740n, 741d, 741k (ap), 750 cfg-PC, 751k (ap), 751k (la), 751n, 760 cfg-PC, 760d, 761c, 761k, 771k, 771n, 780d, 781.no, 781.se, 781d, 791.nl, 791.se, 791d, 791k

[NooNoo]

I posted a link to the right driver... did you try it?

[blahgrldia]

i tried the link but it sed there was an error. they couldn't find something...

[NooNoo]

An error downloading? An error loading the page? or what?

blah you are going to have to be a little more clear about things if you want quick and accurate help.

Hi, NooNoo -

I just wanted to let you know that I downloaded the audio drivers for my HP Pavilion 552x via the link you provided, and everything works fine!

Later,

catsize
