One of the best and the most informative sites that I have ever seen. All the Drivers are ready to download and it makes my day to day life routine easy.
I browse the HP Website but they have nothing special there. They manufacture Laptops which are Vista compatable and but most of them time it run slow due to limited Ram or other problems.
We usually prefer to install Windows xp2 thinking that it will run fine but most of them time we are stucked in the middle because of Driver Issue.
Thanks for making all the device driver available for download. Great Job.
we have installed the windows XP drivers for our laptop model compaq presario CQ50-106AU(AMD Atholon Processor) . we dint get the drivers for a long time and on request you have sent the drivers and the manual instructions for instaling the VGA driver . But while instaling the VGA driver the error code 10 is being generated . Even after two months we couldn’t get the drivers properly.please give a solution for this as soon as possible to my mail adress.waiting for your reply.

hello my name is hemant sharma and i cannot handle this trouble so please help…..
Hello Arun,
If you have installed the chipset drivers and followed the install guide for VGA the diver will be installed correctly. If errors persist it may be cause the OS may be messed up with previous drivers, Please uninstall the old drivers or reinstalling a fresh copy of XP is recommended.
Thank you
Prasad S R
Hey Prasad,
You came as an angel in this world with monopolistic arogance of corporate giants. Thanks a billion.
A small glitch still not gone. My microphone is not responding, any tips?? During the installation, I missed your instructions about disabling the first and installing the second Audio Device on HD bus. So I installed for the first device and on realising the mistake. I immediately disabled it before installing for the next Audio device. Does it have anything to do with that?

7. Select “Install from a list or specific location(Advanced)” and Click “Next”
8. Select “Don`t search. I will choose” and Click “Next”
9. From the list scroll down and select “modem device” and Click next
10. Click “Have Disk..”
11. Click “Browse” and choose this folder
12. Select the “C:\swsetup\sp33839\something(I don’t remember:).inf″ file and Click “Open”
15. Click “OK”

Dear Prasad,
1. My CQ50 106au, was working fine with Vista for a year, As my c drive didn’t have enough space to install new softwares, I Reinstalled Vista by increasing the drive size. but while formating and re-partition, i lost 80GB space. am not able to name the drive or use it. its disappeared… any suggestion to getback the lost space.
2. After reinstalling the Vista..everything works fine but when i turn on my wifi, I get Blue screen, but works fine with lan..
how do i fix this?

i have compaq presario cq50-106au model laptop, i need UAA driver for that, os is windows 7, plz give link for download the UAA
hi i have installed windows xp sp3. can i use the same drivers?
Prasad,
Thanks so much for your excellent instructions. It is rare and refreshing to find advice for updating device drivers that actually walks the user through a manual update via Device Manager. For non-IT people who do this once or twice in our entire lifetimes, this info is ESSENTIAL. Thank you for having the foresight and taking the time to provide that level of detail.
I spent days trying to get all of the XP drivers to work, but was stumped with the audio driver and had resigned to give up my quest for an XP Downgrade. Luckily, I did one last search and stumbled upon your thread.
Thanx Buddy information is very useful
