Ethernet 10/100 driver for presario f731AU - Page 4

pencapchew · 02-05-2008, 04:02 AM

Hi all,

The "Unknown Device" problem solved after installing Quick Buttons. The only problem left now is the Webcam CNF7040 and the Audio that is not running properly. I can't use my earphone?

**BCCOMP** · 02-05-2008, 06:04 AM

Hi,
I just want to make sure this driver was installed.

I want you to install this driver if you did not already.

2nd from the bottom.

You might have missed this one.

The one missing device I want to ID it.
Go to the device manager. Right click>Properties>A window will open go to the details tab. Post what you see in the details.
Thanks,
Bill

Hi all, firstly I would like to thank all the wonderful people here who has helped me successfully getting my notebook up and running. After downloaded the file from the link given by BCCOMP, and executed it, my "Device Manager" is still the same with the question mark sign on CNF7040. Then, I decided to do manual installation and finally the problem solved.

Thank you

PS: Oh yeah, almost forgot. My Audio still not working properly. And the URL you gave me about the AMD processor is not available.

**BCCOMP** · 02-06-2008, 10:11 AM

Hi,
Try this link again:
http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/..._13118,00.html
Install the 2nd! one from the bottom if you have not done so.

Are there any errors in the device manager?

As far as the audio, I have researched this (a little). This is one of the bugs when you downgrade. Try this, when you hookup the Headphones, MUTE the speakers and see if you get sound from the headphones only.
I am not sure that this will work, but as I said it is one bug you may have to deal with. From my research this is a common problem.

I want to Thank You for your patients and staying with us to resolve this issue. You are more patient than most.
The important thing is, has our hard work made you Happy. If so and the only problem you have is the speaker issue, I will POST all the correct drivers for this model for others to use at the end of this thread.
Let us know!
Thank You,
Bill

Could you tell us what software driver fixed the CNF7040? Why? I've searched the internet fairly throughly and I can't find even one reference to this number. That's really strange.

Good question Brow96,
Yes, Pencapchew let us know!
By the way Thank You for your help on this one!

Hi all, I already installed the processor driver. After I muted my speakers the problem is still there.

I direct manual installation from the SWSetup folder. Then, I search for the Webcam driver folder which is SP33544 clicked expand on it and there's another file called SP33839. I just selected it and it automatically detects the webcam for me

**BCCOMP** · 02-07-2008, 06:22 AM

Hi,
What do you mean by "After I muted my speakers the problem is still there".

pencapchew · 02-07-2008, 11:40 PM

I muted it using Volume Control. But it seems like the VC only works on Wave and SW Synth.

**BCCOMP** · 02-07-2008, 11:53 PM

Try muting the speakers with the Fn functions keys Fn + home.
Also check the audio properties. Right click on the sound icon in the task bar>adjust audio properties>Device volume advance tab. Make sure nothing is muted.
In the speaker setting click on advance tab and be sure the speaker setup is set to laptop stereo.
Thanks

I already tried the Fn + home keys but still the same. I already changed the speaker setup to laptop stereo.

**BCCOMP** · 02-09-2008, 07:02 AM

When you do this are you getting sound from the headphones with the speakers muted?

pencapchew · 02-09-2008, 07:35 AM

Im still having both sound from my speaker and headphone. Why is that happening?

**BCCOMP** · 02-09-2008, 05:27 PM

Hi Pencapchew.
I am afraid at the moment there is no solution to this problem.
The original driver for this unit is Conexant HD-Audio SmartAudio 221. This is a Vista driver only. Down the road someone or HP might come up with an XP Driver.
Other than this issue is there any other problems?
This is why a downgrade does not always a 100%,(Vista BIOS).
Thanks,
Bill

brow96 · 02-10-2008, 11:54 AM

Please note that the output from the "Headphones" jack is STEREO. If you plug a MONO headset into a Stereo Jack the Laptop speakers AND the Headphones speakers will be energized at the same time. How to check whether or not you have "Stereo" or Mono" headphones? A "stereo" headphone jack / plug will have two dark rings on it's tip. A "mono" jack / plug will only have one dark ring on it's tip.

**BCCOMP** · 02-11-2008, 01:22 AM

Hi pencapchew,
Be sure to mute the speakers Before connecting the headphones. This should produce sound to your headphones only.

pencapchew · 02-14-2008, 08:35 PM

Hi all,

Sorry for the late reply. The Conexant HD-Audio SmartAudio 221, I've been updated with version 3.30 which solve my Volume Control problem. But I still have sound coming out from both my speaker and headphone. At the moment I don't have any mono headphone?

So I guess, I'll just have to wait for new updates. Anyway, I'll try find mono headphones today. Thanks for you all advise.
