I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit on HP a6030n and my sound card is ALC 888Here is my id info for my audio card so if somebody could help me find the right driver that would be great.

| | Did you remember to install the chipset drivers? Most times a lot of other things won't work properly without them. Unfortunately that HP of yours has one of the old Nforce 4 based chipsets on it, Motherboard Specifications, MCP61PM-HM (Nettle) HP Pavilion a6030n Desktop PC - HP Customer Care (United States - English) that there is limited to no support for in Windows 7 because Nvidia dropped support for it shortly after Vista came out (bet you also have a coprocessor with a yellow triangle showing in Device Manager as well). There is however a Vista chipset driver, NVIDIA DRIVERS 15.49 WHQL that should work. It may take compatibility mode to get it to install, Compatibility Mode Get the chipset driver installed and the audio driver should then install. |

| | One good reason for the driver failing, there is nothing showing at all for "Sound, video, and game controllers" to the point that the entire category is missing. Might want to have a quick look in the bios and make sure that the onboard audio is enabled. P.S. You can use it if you want but the driver yowanvista is somewhere around 2 years old and has been updated numerous times since then. |

| | ok so to get into my bios to check, do i restart my comp and press a key? EDIT: my bios shows me nothing related to audio except Audio Codec. the choices are disable, enable, or auto. it was set on auto so i set it to enable but nothing happened...

| | Leave the option set to Auto. Download the current driver from Realtek - see: Latest Realtek HD Audio Driver Version and follow the instructions here: Device Manager - Install Driver - Vista Forums to install the driver. I recommend that you download the zipped version of the driver, extract it and then then browse to the extracted files in Step 10 of the above Tutorial. |
