Hi, and welcome. What graphic card are you using? Have you checked for windows 7 updates yet?

i managed to fix it just had to find the right driver i think i have a similar driver related problem with my other windows 7 netbook.... ive got a sumsung nc10 originally had xp an upgraded ram to run windows 7 smoothly but im having a problem... everytime i plug headphones in to my netbook no sound comes out an i have to restart to get the sound to work... what would be the ideal audio driver?? the realtek windows 7 one??

Hello y2matt.

The Windows Update driver enables most audio features and is the most stable.

However, in most cases it lacks of built-in microphone support. I would suggest to download the Vista driver (High Definition or AC97 , depending on your audio card ) from Realtek

hey what driver did you end up using for that? I cannot find something that will work with my 64 bit windows on my hp pavillion dv6000.

You should probably go to the OEM's website

Select software and drivers #

It looks to be a Conexant Codec you're using not Realtek.

Solution to My dv6000 Problem

I have a dv6000 AMD Turion X2 2GB Ram, NVIDIA Graphics. Windows 7 Ultimate N.

My resolution was only giving me to options of 800 x 600 and 1028 x 760 after I Installed Windows 7, after all attempts failed and I couldn't get my blurry resolution issue solved
I downloaded the Windows Vista NViDia Graphics Driver for the dv6045nr

and restarted the computer and vwaala...it worked, still not as good as my newer laptop with the AERO features but still a crystal clear display.
