[SOLVED] HP Compaq Presario F750US Drivers Needed

kelvinator · 01-31-2008, 08:10 AM

Hi mates, this is my 5th day trying to install drivers on my laptop with no success.
BCCOMP thank you for your assistance, here I opened a new thread, I hope members could help me.

I downgraded from VISTA to XP because I have old softwares which run on that O.S.
But I thought I could find easily xp drivers and I found them but something does not let me install them.

I followed the steps and the same result.

Here are the screenshots and everest report:
thanks in advance.

**BCCOMP** · 01-31-2008, 08:23 AM

Hi kelvinator,
Is there any way you can submit the report in English?
Thanks,
Bill

kelvinator · 01-31-2008, 10:09 AM

Sorry

, but my O.S is in spanish version and I only can translate few words,

. Tell me what is the most important point to try to translate please.
here you have it:

**BCCOMP** · 01-31-2008, 10:37 AM

Hi Kelvinator,
Give me some time and I will translate it.
I need to know what you have tried to do?
I would also like a screen shot of the device manager.
Thanks,
Bill

kelvinator · 01-31-2008, 12:57 PM

Thanks mate

I see you really want to help me.
It is in spanish too

I tried to downgrade in order I can use the old softwares that cannot run in VISTA O.S.
Here is device manager screenshot:

**BCCOMP** · 01-31-2008, 05:43 PM

Thanks for the shot.
I am going to try to get the info you need to see if we can get this up and running.
Is this a clean install of XP? Do you have a Vista Backup just in case? Have you attempted to load any drivers?
Thanks,
Bill

kelvinator · 01-31-2008, 06:33 PM

Yes, it is a clean install of xp.
No, I did not backup anything of vista.
Yes, I tried with no luck.

I followed the steps clearly. I still cannot find the right drivers, please a need your help.
W.B.R.

**BCCOMP** · 01-31-2008, 08:19 PM

Hi,
We are going to do this at a step at a time. If you run into a problem, STOP and let me know.

1. Install this driver (Chipset):
http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_...nxp_16.08.html
Down load and install, Then reboot

2. Install this driver (Coprocessor):
http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/..._13118,00.html
2nd one from the bottom on the list
Download and install, Then reboot

3.Install this driver (Graphics):
http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/GRA...Go-15655.shtml
Download and install, Then reboot

4. Install this driver (LAN):
http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_...p2k_14.10.html
Download and extract the file to a new folder (Name this folder so you know what it is and where it is.) MANUALLY install this driver. Go to device manager>Right click on Network controller>Update>Advance option>Browse to the folder you made> select OK and install, Then reboot

5. Install this driver (Wireless):
http://www.acerpanam.com/flex/acerdr...TOKEN=73069701
When the screen come up Select Notebook>Aspire 5100>Atheros 802.11
ZDownload and install, Then reboot

This should get you Online:
Now you need to do a FULL Microsoft Update.
When this is done let me know. Post a screen shot of the DEVICE Manager also.
Do these in the order I gave you.
If you run into trouble let me know.
Thanks,
Bill

I been thinking, yeah I know that's dangerous!

What if the audio section failed. i.e it got broked? What would you do? Turn it into HP and get it fixed. OK? What would they do? They would order the "parts" they needed. So I went looking on the HP Parts store to see what they had for this F750US model by Compaq. I won't bore you with the dozens of windows I had open to trace part numbers. So here is what I found.

Audio circuit board - Without infrared (IR) - For De-featured Pavilion model - 431444-001

# 1 - There is an "Audio board" in the computer. I think that pretty much says it's involved with the Sound in some way?! Right? I think so. Also, on that page where is gives you all the details of the part, is a radio button that will tell you all the models that this particular board is installed in. Hint - It's a BIG list!

# 2 - So through a process of just picking a model and checking for drivers, for XP, for this device here is what I found: I'm ONLY going to list one. There were three full pages of models listed with this assembly installed in it.

Compaq Presario V6000Z CTO Notebook PC

Has the same part number installed in it. Web page for the drivers here:

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/s...3177518&dlc=en

DO NOT TOUCH any other drivers on this page I'm starting on the network card next!

You might want to get the UAA driver too, it's from Compaq! I sincerely hope this driver works. Oh, BTW, if you decide to get the UAA driver? Then Install it FIRST, then REBOOT, and install the Sound Driver.

The reason I say this is that you've said that the UAA drivers previous install didn't show up in the Device Manager, and it's supposed to!!

Also, I found a Maintenance manual for this series of notebooks. Shows you how to take it apart. I'll provide the link if you like?

xXx (fingers crossed)

kelvinator · 02-01-2008, 07:49 AM

A million thanks to BCCOMP and BROW96 for helping me, I will install them right away as you said.
I will post results, and brow96, but OF COURSE I want those maintenance manuals!!!
I am also searching and believe me, I do not know how you do it to find those web pages.
W.B.R

**BCCOMP** · 02-01-2008, 08:01 AM

Let us know how it goes.
Thanks,
Bill

The F750US Chassis is the same for the HP G6000 and the Compaq F700 (Series):

HP G6000 Notebook PC and Compaq Presario F700 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide

http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01295900.pdf

Should keep you busy and a frequent guest here! I know a "tinkerer" when he says the right words!!

If this all worked? I'd definitely won't to know about it and so would a lot of other people. Because there were hundreds of links all over the internet discussing exactly the same thing we are discussing. They don't seem to be having all that much luck, either.

kelvinator · 02-01-2008, 04:28 PM

Yeah, that's because my real job is cellphone maintenance

I have already read this forum rules but I feel I am in debt with this page and of course, with you both. So if you need a help about fones, just P.M me, right?
I'd like to be useful here but with this short knowledge hmmm...I will surely do my best to give a hand.

YES!!! This means I could finally install the video and co-processor drivers!!!
A few left but it is a good beginning!
Thank mates. I will post screenshots so you can see how it goes.

Hang around here long enough and you'll get there, that's a guarantee.

OK, I gather by the "YES!!" statement that those drivers I found worked, for both the Sound and for the UAA driver.

Now here's a statement for the spiders to gather:

For the following HP / Compaq models that have Windows Vista installed. They all use the same Audio Module (P/N 431444-001) and thus can use these drivers for Windows XP:

Conexant High Definition Audio Driver

Microsoft Universal Audio Architecture
(UAA) Bus Driver for High Definition Audio

kelvinator · 02-02-2008, 08:10 AM

No, the UAA and the other audio driver does not work, I disabled kaspersky just in case and it is the same

I stopped trying, now tell me please what´s the next step. I am counting on you.
As you can see here, there are 4 devices, between them, ehternet (2 ethernets?) and UNKNOWN DEVICE? Strange situation

W.B.R.

Here is the screenshot:

**BCCOMP** · 02-02-2008, 08:34 AM

Hi Kelvinator,
It now appears you are trying to get the sound to work. The sound driver has to be installed manually through the device manager. Please uninstall the drivers that you downloaded and reinstall in this order
UAA Driver:.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/s...roduct=1817059
and
Audio driver.
[http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/s...os=228&lang=en

Install The UAA driver first and reboot.
Then proceed to install the Audio Driver.
This driver may error so you have to manually install it. I have attached instruction in how to do this. I would advise you print this out for review.
once installed again reboot.

You will also need it for the Modem driver.
The modem driver is here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/s...os=228&lang=en
Again, manually install this driver and reboot.

When done you should have sound and the modem working.

The Lan driver Here:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_...p2k_14.10.html
This also has to be installed manually. Download and extract the file to a new folder (Name this folder so you know what it is and where it is.) MANUALLY install this driver. Go to device manager>Right click on Network controller>Update>Advance option>Browse to the folder you made> select OK and install, Then reboot

Please post a screen shot of the device manager so that I can see what is left.
Thanks,
Bill

kelvinator · 02-02-2008, 08:52 AM

There's something wrong with links, after selecting language, it shows "OOPS, Sorry, this page is not available "
Thanks BCCOMP.
Regards.

**BCCOMP** · 02-02-2008, 09:03 AM

Sorry about that. I have edited the post. Please try again.
Also, be sure you have done a full Microsft update before you proceed.
Thanks,
Bill

kelvinator · 02-02-2008, 10:43 AM

When I try to install UAA driver (previously updated windows) the extraction begins and when the wizard setup tries to run it suddenly dissappears, so I stopped to this point. What´s the next step mate?
Thanks in advance.

**BCCOMP** · 02-02-2008, 10:57 AM

It should have installed If you want to double check go to Add / Remove progams. Look for High Definition Audio Package KB888111.
If there proceed installing the Audio driver.
Thanks,
Bill
