The UAA bus driver high definition audio driver on my computer has a yellow hashmark on it. I've tried to download a new driver and install it, but still does not work. I've uninstalled the driver and reinstalled the newer download but that does not work either. This computer is custom built. It's running XP PRO SP3. All the latest updates off of Microsoft update are installed and runnning.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

When you right click that yellow bang, what is the error?

Do you still have sound? If so, uninstall the UAA from Add/Remove.

Error is: Device cannot start (Code 10). I've uninstalled the driver from add/remove programs. I do not have sound.

This is what it's about; http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943104/

Try this UAA download and install; http://support.microsoft.com/kb/888111/

If you don't have a motherboard CD then Open the case and see who makes the motherboard. Right down the model # and go to that manufacturers site and download the driver from there.

spike,

I am on the asus mobo website for my mobo model.
There is nothing here for UAA BUS Driver...but i will b dling and installing the soundmax drivers it supports.
I am also going to dl and install BIOS flash updates and chipset driver updates...see if this helps...

Thanks for the info guys...

Quicknote: CCT - the site you gave me made no difference after dling and installing the fix, there was no change...

when i try to install the soundmax driver i get the error: the audio driver files do not suport your hardware....y??

Download Everest and run that. It should tell you the manufacturer of your hardware. Then do a Google or go to the manufacturers site for the driver.
or try this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/835221

CCT

They usually say the UAA drivers should be installed first, then the sound chip drivers.

After installing from that site, the yellow flag remains beside UAA??

spike2me

Did you try the UAA download from the Microsoft site? What other yellow marks do you have in Device Manager? Have you run Everest to see what your hardware is?

ok guys,

Im going to the add/remove programs window - deleting the high definition audio driver package & the realtek high definition audio driver.
Everest says my mobo is an ASUS P5GPL-X motherboard
Audio Adapter is: Intel 82801FB ICH6 - High Definition Audio Controller (C-0)
Mutlmedia: Windows Audio is blank..
PCI /PnP Audio is the same as the Audio Adapter above...

I've uninstalled the driver package and the audio driver and restarted the system..
I have a PCI Device with a yellow mark on it now in Device Manager...
I am downloading the UAA driver hotfix right now...
Once I install and restart the system, I will hopefully have the correct UAA driver then, I will download the Realtek Sound Driver...

didnt work..lol....
I've downloaded and installed the UAA driver hotfix...it still has a yellow hashmark next to it....idk what to do....

starting to get frustrated...what if I did a mobo reset??...would that work you think??..lol

spike2me, send me your email in private and i will email you the results of Everest

If you uninstall the UAA driver, the yellow flag does go away?

You can post an Everest Summary here (it often doesn't work well on newer mobos).

Download and run Everest Home (it is free):

http://www.filehippo.com/download_everest_home/

http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.html

http://www.softpedia.com/progDownloa...oad-16369.html

Once you download it, click on it and let it install and then run it from the icon on your desktop. Click on file, preferences, report and uncheck the 'include debug information in the report' box. People rarely want to see that stuff.
Click on the + sign beside 'Computer', then on 'Summary', then go to the VERY Top of the screen and click on 'report'.

Note: the 'Very Top' isn't one line down, it means what it says.

Cursor over 'quick report-summary' and then click on 'plain text' and then click on 'save to file' and change the 'save in' folder to 'Desktop' and then click 'Save'.

Clear all your open windows and on the Desktop click on that 'report.txt' icon - this will open it in a text editor (probably Notepad) and then copy and paste it to here.

NOTE: DO NOT POST ALL THE DEBUG stuff - please read and follow the directions given.

CCT,

Yes, if i uninstall the driver, the yellow flag does go away...

CCT

Here's what I suggest; uninstall the present UAA drivers and the audio drivers.

Reboot.

Then download and install the older UAA drivers from here; http://support.microsoft.com/kb/835221/

Reboot.

Then download and install the Soundmax drivers one more time from the Asus site. Get the RIGHT drivers for your XP version.

Reboot.

husla_16

If i uninstall the UAA bus drivers and reboot, they automatically get reinstalled again. Don't know how to stop the reinstallation process upon reboot.

dai

try this

in the device manager uninstall the card

reboot into safe mode

install the uaa driver

reboot and install the sound driver and reboot and check it
