Tech Support Forum - View Single Post - [SOLVED] XP Drivers for Conexant Audio on Compaq Presario

Hi there!

I have a new Compaq Presario F756NR notebook that came with Vista. However, I really don't like Vista, so I formatted the hard drive (after creating Recovery Discs!) and installed XP with SP3. After a lot of searching, I eventually managed to find all the drivers except the audio drivers (for the Conexant SmartAudio 221 sound card). Since I have installed SP3, Microsoft's High Definition Audio Package is already installed.

I have tried the following SoftPaqs, but none of them work:

SP32823
SP33543
SP34200
SP36090

The Vista drivers for this card (SP39051) indicate that driver version of this card is 4.36.7.60.

I have searched everywhere on the Internet and cannot find the XP drivers for this card!!

Can anyone help me?

Thx!
