July 13, 2008 at 7:53 pm
Dear sunil please explain the problem in detail so that i can work on it. Please mention the checks and troubleshooting you have done so that i can know your skill level with PC and then provide you sufficient help.
Please check the following :
1. Specify whether there is any devices listed on Device manager >> Other devices
2. If your audio driver is installed under Sound, video and game controllers please check whether there is an yellow exclamation mark in front
3. Is your audio working and you cannot control the volume level
4. Is your laptop speakers are still playing sound when you plug in headphones?
5. Is your integrated MIC not working while a mic attached to the headphone is working fine.
Please check these conditions if your problem isn’t listed please write it here..
Thank you

hi
i was not able to install smbus driver by this method& i was not able to find wifi folder in my pc
July 19, 2008 at 2:04 pm
Hi Mohit,
You have to check out the device manager for SMDriver in yellow color. (Then only you have to install SMBus drivers this will not be asked if you have already tried installing other drivers which hasn’t been listed here ) Can you specify if there was any errors prompted while installing SM bus driver. Please quote it here.
About Wireless you have to download the file unzip it and u can find the required file inside its 100% working.
July 24, 2008 at 7:29 am
I have a problem – even if I plug the headphone sound is coming out from the PC speaker along with the headphone. So i have no use of the headphone. How to resolve this issue?
July 24, 2008 at 10:18 am
Hello, Samiram
You havent mentioned whether you have installed the UAA and Audio drivers listed here. If you havent please uninstall the current drivers and install the UAA Driver for HD Audio and audio Drivers as listed here. It will solve your problem. Even after that if the problem persist. Go to control Panel >> Sounds and Audio Device >> In volume TAB >> Speaker Settings >> Advanced.. >> Speaker Setup >> select “No speakers”
then under the Audio TAB >> select “Use only default devices”
July 24, 2008 at 9:50 pm

how to download C772 audio driver (Audio/Sound )
February 19, 2009 at 2:32 pm
thnx…man,,,for all ya help…keep giving cool ideas n suggestions.
February 22, 2009 at 3:58 pm
i have a c797vu. i also had the same problem.When i contacted HP customer care they said this machine has been prepared for Vista only,if u are installing win XP in compaq C797VU 3 problems will be there.
1.the mic will not work
2.if u r using head phone u can hear sound both in earphone as well as in external speaker.
3.Wireless WI fi button will not turn blue even if it is enabled.
forget about the 3rd point it doesn’t cause any probs,its simple a matter of blue light or orange light. but the 1st n 2nd are really a big issue.
I updated the audio driver as said above and 2he 2 nd problem is solved….u guys can install it for c797vu too.
About the 1st problem,its partially resolved.Because my mic is working only if its an external mic.but the inbuilt mic, near the webcam is not working….
Any solution regarding that????
February 25, 2009 at 9:33 pm

Hello Prasad,
I have a Compaq C772TU Laptop. As u had mentioned here i installed all the necessary drivers and all were working fine until recently. Some days before my laptop’s sound driver got disabled automatically. in device management the Conexant HD Smart Audio 221 is still listed but the media players won’t have any sound and says that no sound device detected. But if i update the driver again using the same drivers it works fine for 1 or 2 days and after that the same thing happens again and again. Please note that at this time the windows sounds work fine like the startup and shutdown sounds, double click sounds etc. what could be the problem? It will be a great help if u could help me…My laptop is almost and year old…
Thank you
