Lost sound on HP Pavilion w/Windows XP
I think that someone messing with the sound uninstalled something that I need. It says that I have "no sound mixer" and "no audio device". There is no longer a volume (speaker) icon on the taskbar.
I have checked all of the connections, and went to Windows Update to see if it would automatically download whatever I am missing. I think what's gone is the program "Realtec Audio", or something similarly spelled. I don't want to reinstall the entire operating system and wipe out all the files currently on my hard drive, just to get this one missing piece back. And I sure don't want to call Microsoft Tech Support, where the first instruction is to get out your credit card. Any help would be appreciated. |

Re: Lost sound on HP Pavilion w/Windows XP
1.)go here: HP Software & Driver download
2.)put in your model number (look on the sticker on the bottom for the exact model number...i.e. i have a pavilion zv5000, but the sticker is zv5410us) 3.)there will be a list of drivers for everything, including sound. |
