    Where can I find the updated audio drivers for the zv6000? Someone posted on another forum that updating the drivers makes the speakers sound better. I think the ones HP's site are the same as came with my notebook.

    I think "Windows Update" has the new one.

    I still haven't found them, and the ones on the HP don't work at all.

    yeah i remember seeing someone post it and how he had a trained ear. He had a link to the drivers, but I've looked on every forum and can't find it now. I thought it was on this forum.

    Hey are you deaf[ :D](jus kidding), hieunknown already answered the question..Go into device manager and double-click the sound device. Then find the update driver button and use windows update to get the new drivers!

    Piece of cake, now all we have to do is to get HP to send those drivers along with the all their ZV6000 series laptops!

    Cheers!
