    My windows package died on my hp nx6325 recently, and as I had purchased the machine secondhand, from a private seller now unavailable for comment or advice, I stripped the partition clean, then installed another windows xp build...

    I have re-installed the drivers for the touchpad, graphics, broadcom wirelass card...but the audio drivers fail to install and give me sound, because they all get stuck at the end of the installation routine and present me with an error of
    'unable to find HDA ausdio bus driver'

    To remedy this problem, i read that I should install a separate HP driver called
    sp26334. But when I try to install that, i am connected to the HP area online, and then told that as I do not have the same XP operating system that my laptop was originally sold with, that the installation process is now aborted.

    PLEASE HELP ME GET SOUND!!!

    You should really ask this in the HP sub-forum here. I'm sure that a moderator will be moving the post for you shortly......

    You need to uninstall the current audio drivers you have installed, and install the Microsoft UAA framework driver, then re-install your audio drivers. UAA is the Unified Audio Archetecture that was designed for Vista and Win7 for HD Audio chipsets.

    To contact a mod to have a thread moved, press the Report Post button (the triangular icon at the bottom left of each post that looks like a road sign) and just say something like "please move to the appropriate forum".

    It's quick and painless if the topic creator does it themselves.
