Dear sysprasad,
Thanks for the all the usefull stuff you put. But i am facing a small problem in audio driver, after following all your instruction sond is comming only when i disable and enable “Microsoft UAA Bus driver for High Defenision Audio” in device manager. And after restart it goes off again. Please resolve this problem.
Thanks ,
Ur tips were of great help. but the problem is sound driver gets installed, then when I restart it doesn’t work. I followed ur steps for installing audio and sound driver. but cant hear audio after restarting pc again.
Please help me.
Hello Charudata,
If you are using Windows XP SP3, Im not sure of the patch will work, And if you are using Windows XP SP2, please follow the steps described as here. Please read the steps over and over , may be you have gone wrong in the phase where the UAA address is copied, normally people copies the whole line, rather that the specified part of it.
Thank you,
Prasad.S.R

could anyone help me to find the link please….hhuhu
dear SaysPrasad,
your effort to help out desperate people is really great and it helped me out also and as following your instructions I could successfully installed drivers for blue tooth, LAN but still I am wandering for Audio as most of the forum user faced the same problem that is to disable and enable the UAA in device manager. also I could not get access to 39671 driver more important the VGA Driver you provided is not at all working need some good advice.
hay prasad,
in cq model is dell audio drivers match?,
and i need how to install xp without floppy.i neeed that method
dear SaysPrasad,
AS per your instruction given for the Audio I followed the same and now the sound is activated but without windows microsoft well come tone as the .bat file loads and the sound drivers activates little later any way it solved my problem but for the CQ40-317TU I found the built in MIC is too weak to send voices over internet voip and chats is there any programme to increase the SENSITIVITY?
Secondly still I am trying desperately for the VGA Driver for XP I have tried almost all the SPs for e.g. sp 39715,sp29947,sp33761 and intel 1483 but all unable to load as the dialogue box appears saying system doesnot meets the requirements or driver is not validated and contact to manufacturer.
Please help me regarding the appropriate VGA Driver
thanks
thank you saysprasad.
can this be applied on CQ40-324tu as well? I have just installed XP but having problem with audio… 😦 please help.

download all the above drivers.before installing them go to HP website and then go to download section…
select your laptop model there and then in its download section,search for “Winflash” in Vista drivers..
download and install it carefully..
then all the above downloaded drivers will work..
there will be no need for installing dotnetfx or devcon method..before installing audio-sp39671.exe,install MUAA driver..
audio will remain until u remove XP frm ur laptop…..

thak you for submitting ypur post , this is very interesting post, and i will definitely take a lokk around your site.
I was wondering if you ever considered changing the structure of your website?
Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could
connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two pictures.
Maybe you could space it out better?
Appreciate it for helping out, fantastic information. “Nobody can be exactly like me. Sometimes even I have trouble doing it.” by Tallulah Bankhead.
