soundcard won't work
Our problem is that the soundcard is no longer recognized. It does not appear in Devices. It has an XPressAudio ESS soundcard, and after speaking with HP/Compaq tech support, we attempted to install an updated driver, which was listed as being for Windows NT (audiont.exe was the name of the driver). We get an "installation failed" message when we try to install this driver.
Does anyone know how to get the soundcard to be recognized? Again, I understand that this laptop does not have nearly optimal hardware to be running XP, so comments stating such are not really helpful. Any help is appreciated! Thanx! :-)
