Hey guys...
I have just downgraded my HP Pavilion DV6742eo from Vista to XP (of course!)
I have almost found all the drivers, but i can't get the sound working! Under Device Manager there is no problems with the Sound device, and i have never downloaded a sound driver for it, but when i try to play music in Windows Media player, it says, that i don't have installed any sound device!
Everytime i get a system message my PC just says a big BEEP.
---
My Motherboard is Quanta 30D0, and the "Device Audio" is MCP65 High Definition Audio.
Is it a driver update i need, because i can't find anything!
Anyone



??

The sound ''driver''
I wrote with a guy on
www.hp.com, and he told me, that i should install the driver like this:
This will create a swsetup folder in c drive ( for example:"C:\swsetup\sp33742")
1. Click on Start and select Run. Now type devmgmt.msc and press enter.
2. Right click on "Audio device on High Definition Audio Bus" and click Update driver.
3. Select "Install from a list or specific location"
4.Click Next. Then select "Don't search, I will choose the driver to install"
5.Click Next and then select "Sound, video and game controller" from the list.
6. Click Next and then click Have Disk.
7. Click Browse C:\swsetup\sp33742 folder and select the .inf (wis30b2a) file and click open and Continue with the onscreen instructions.
- I used the sp33742 file that can be downloaded from here:

---------------------------------------- That is all drivers you need for Windows XP. The Touchpad doesn't need driver, it works withoiut a
driver!
My sound is also 3x higher than on vista :O
