presario f700 driving me nuts.....

hey guys, i would greatly appreciate if anyone could help me up here..

i just got a new presario f731au n installed it with a windows xp pro..

i know tht f700 series would be best perform with vista but i really need to use xp pro instead.

after windows intallation, a few drivers were not to be found.. after almost a whole day searching for suitable drivers for my notebook, 2 drivers remained unfound.. the AUDIO DEVICE ON HIGH DEFINATION AUDIO BUS and the MODEM DEVICE ON HDAU.

+ I'v tried searching from hp website but no driver for my model was available.
+ i'v contact d support cntre but they asked me to search d driver from the net..
+ i m not going to install vista as they do not support the softwares that im running..

its been 3 days now without any sound coming out from my notebook speaker n i feel very lonely... help me please...

 

did you check the XP installation guide in the stickies

 

I also have a presario f700. I have installed xp, and I have got all the drivers working except the nvidia ethernet.
I have the hp download which has 14.10 version nvidia drivers. I have tried installing the network drivers, and I still get a '?' under the device manager labelled 'Other PCI bridge device'. Any ideas where to get a working driver?

I have tried microsoft update to no avail.

TIA

 

hi there

can you provide me with the Audio driver ?

thanks a lot.

regards......

 

Hi there,

I got my 731au working well. First, the modem didnot work, but I tried some driver then work.
Second, the audio no sound, then tried many drivers, and work, but one problem remain, the master volume on windows doesnot work. So must adjust the volume through the player ( mp3, wmp, etc ).

The link to download modem driver is here : http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsuppor...=ob-44166-1&prodTypeId=0&prodSeriesId=1839143

Before installing the Audio and modem drivers in your Notebook you have
to
install the microsoft update(UAA) driver from the below link:

Please download Microsoft Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) Bus
Drivers
from the following
link:

ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp32501-33000/sp32646.exe

Please don't click the link directly. Please copy and paste it on the
address bar of your browser and press enter.

ok

After installing Microsoft Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) Bus
Drivers
restart the
notebook and install Conexant High Definition Audio Driver:

ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp34001-34500/sp34200.exe

This will create a swsetup folder in C drive ("C:\swsetup\sp34200")

Installing this driver may result in an error. But continue with the
following steps to get the audio driver installed correctly.

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\sp34200 folder and select the .inf
(wis30b2a)
file and click open and Continue with the onscreen instructions.

Modem driver:

ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp33501-34000/sp33742.exe

This will create a swsetup folder in C drive ("C:\swsetup\sp33742")

Installing this driver may result in an error. But continue with the
following steps to get the audio driver installed correctly.

1. Click on Start and select Run. Now type devmgmt.msc and press enter.
2. Right click on "Modem" 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 "Modem" 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.

Please follow the above steps and install drivers.

This should resolve the issue.
