    Hello Everyone!

    First timer here and need your help! Today I upgraded from windows xp to windows 7. Everything works except for the sound. I opened up my Itunes and no sound. I inserted a DVD and no sound.

    Has anyone found a successful sound driver?

    I have a HP Pavilion DV8000 that I bought in 2006.

    Can someone help me or advise me?

    Thank you!

    HP site offers a Vista driver for the Conexant device. You might want to give it a try since most Vista drivers would work for Windows 7.
