Audio driver needed

[Grumpybear2000]

Audio device on high definition audio bus, it doesnt have the drivers for compaq cq60 using windows xp. Is there any programs that are safe to use that may find the driver for me.

These kind of programs never work for me , i suggest you try realtek high definition drivers for xp . It's possible that they will work

Many computers (including my laptop) use the Realtek HD audio chipset. Just get the installer for XP from Filehippo.

I can only name one program that worked:

The rest are erratic or a ploy to get you to pay by limiting non-paying users to 5 drivers a day or stuff like that...

There's a freeware app called 3DP Chip its on Hiren's 15.1, you can find it in the drivers section of the boot cd menu in Windows or download it from their website.

Hiren's 15.1

Straying a bit from the original topic, I'd like to say that thing is a lifesaver. Always keep a copy at hand.

Hi guys , only program I really use for these type of problems is DriverMax . Free to use but only two drivers per day , only need vid or sound ? Very easy but you have to read the Data base and research what others have tried .

Simple ,tried and true , use a phoney e-mail to sign up . :)

Anyone tried that? I saw it recommended on a PC Tools article (I think) recently, so maybe it's not a scam. A driver scanner that works can be useful when you're trying to fix someone else's computer and "the CD that came with it? oh no I don't think I have it".

I used to use that one too, but the limit is way too low for me, because you generally need to download a bunch of drivers for old hardware in a row during a fresh windows install, and in the end it just didn't really solved my needs.
If the subscription wasn't so high, and if my needs weren't so sporadic, I would have definitely bought it.

My friend is developing an app for stuff like this. I checked it out and it looks promising although it is more of an ultimate solution for PC/Laptop/Apple technicians. Still some kinks to work out though, like working out a good way to "sense" the limit for download speed reduction on official driver sites etc.

He will be charging money for it though, probably with a simplistic free version and then plugins for the rest, even custom made per client if demand is for that. I haven't had the chance to actually field test it yet.
