Access: http://www.compaq.com/support
and enter your model-number, and do the search.
Select "download drivers".
Select your Operating System.
Select the 'Audio Device'.
Download the device-driver, and install it.

if can not get sound, right click on my computer icon and take properties. then click on hardware from the dialog box, click on device manager. move to sound and click on the + sign beside. if audio controler is highligted in red it means the audio drivers are not installed. installed or update this drivers. if not, click on start, move to control panel and click on sound and audio devices. Check if the volume has been mute.if so, unmute it and you will be able to get your sounds

After reinstalling/installing an Operating System you can lose the Audio Drivers or sometimes they just corrupt.. Try reinstalling the Audio Drivers from the disk provide with your P.C./Laptop. If you no longer have the disk just visit the website of the makers of your P.C./Laptop or Motherboard and download the Audio Drivers from there, after that install them.
Thumbs up please if this works for you, thanks.

Try installing the audio driver again, if you do not have this driver on a CD, then you need to download the drivers from the Compaq/HP WEB support/download page. Make sure you select your model laptop and the XP or Vista Windows version of the drivers you require and install them. Click on this link to download the drivers: -

Hi


Either the sound drivers of your laptop needs to be re-installed or there might be a problem with speakers in your laptop, however please try to install the drivers again.

Regards

have you got the audio output devices installed in your system?? its in your original cd-rom you've received on purchase. get it done. and before that... Please try re installing your operating system. (Genuine windows xp or vista recommended)

If the problem still persists feel free to get back me @

Hi there,if you go to START the CONTROL PANEL
Click Audio Devices,
Click place volume icon in task bar,
Click ok

This will place a volume icon on the bottom right hand side by the clock.

Hope this helps

Theresa,
You should Uninstall your Audio driver, then re-install it will fix your problem.

• Goto Device Manager
• Right Click on your Audio driver component
• Select Un-Install.
• Then reboot your system.
• And re-install driver for audio.

please post your feedback.
Thanks
