Requesting hp pavilion dv1000 audio drivers

I have had this problem for a while, and I solved it by learning exactly how to search the HP driver listings correctly. The issue stems from the fact that searching for "HP Pavilion dv1000" is not as specific as you might think...

Step one:
Go Here
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&dest_page=product&docname=c00033108&product=18073
Find the *EXACT* model number of your laptop. For instance, it turns out my "HP Pavilion dv1000" is actually a "dv1657cl." Alternately, you can take down the Product Number (or p/n).

Step two:
Go Here

I am sure we are all familiar with this page, but you will find that it is a little more helpful now that we are armed with the knowledge that it requires. Search on this page with your model number or p/n and you should find the correct drivers (for audio as well as other devices) easily.

For example, I finally found this page for my "dv1657cl."

Good luck, everyone!

Hi princesaazul2000 . I have HP pavilion dv1000 notebook .Recently i reinstalled windows vista to hard drive replacement . Now i have volume Control with Missing many options !! Only Speaker, Wave, SW Synth and CD Player are there.

I'm sorry it took me for ever to see your request, send me emal to princesaazul2000@hotmail to send you back the drivers if you still need them.....Sorry, sorry sorry!!!!!!!

Not sure with the exact Model since Notebook models starting from DV1000 till DV1599EA will be having Conexant AC97 Audio card.

However, if your notebook is over the dv1600 series, it is installed with Intel High Definition Audio.

So, please get back with the exact Product Number of your Notebook which you can find printed on a white sticker pasted at the bottom of the Notebook indicated with P/N.
