For the latest and greatest NVIDIA display drivers you guys might want to check this tool out:
http://www.driverheaven.net/driverhe...-released.html

Driver Heaven's "Mobility Modder" tool for Nvidia drivers modifies the INFs of the latest NVIDIA drivers to work properly with the mobile versions of the same hardware. I'm currently running the 177 BETA w/ Physx and CUDA support on my DV6609WM using this tool. It glitches a little sometimes opening control panel windows, but for whatever reason the display LOOKS much better on apps etc. I'll update this if I run into big issues etc. You may also want to consider using the Driver Sweeper program that is available from Guru3d to remove the old ones before you try and put new ones on.

When the setup runs a screen with the following message shows up.

"Microsoft UAA Bus Driver for HD Audio Setup is preparingthe installshield , which will guide you through the EULA and the rest of the setup process."

After that it just dissapears ...without any Finish/OK msg or anything(not evn any error msg)..I donno y this is happening...??

i am having this exact same problem. i have the uaa bus driver all ready to install. i double click it and it gets to the part where it is preparing the install shield and just disappears. wasn't sure if anyone else knew what might be the problem or can send me the files it installs so i can put it on. i've downloaded several different versions from several different places and still nothing. sucks cause sound is the only thing missing from making this a 100% success.

Just wanted to update. Found this and it let me install UAA finally...


If the install for this vanishes, you need to DELETE the registry entry @ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates\Windows XP\SP3\KB888111WXPSP2

Once that is deleted then you can reinstall without it just flashing on the screen. It MIGHT not contain the wxpsp2 part at the end, but it is KB888111

Hope this helps... I have been battling this for awhile!

[jml00a]

well it went through the install process....but it still didn't install correctly...man and i thought i had a breakthrough there.

hi guys!
the solution for conexant high definition audio driver under XP is a little complicated:


you need to download from HP s website 2 different drivers:
SP36090 the latest conexant for XP, and
SP36214 the latest conexant for Vista

execute both files! It will unpack these files and try to install the drivers, but probably without success!
You`ll have both of the drivers unpacked:
one: c:\sp36090
the other one c:\swsetup\SP36214 if you don`t change the path before unpacking


Now: go to sp36090 directory choose xp32 if you have XP 32 bit version and there
rename the files CHDAud.sys -to-> CHDART.sys
and UCI32105.dll -to-> UCI32A19.dll

after this copy the renamed files into SP36214\v32 by overwriting the originals

that`s it! you have the drivers for Conexant High Definition Audio for XP 32 bit version.

do not execute because it will not be able to install the soundcard!


First of all you have to install the high definition audio bus for high definition audio by downloading and installing kb888111xpsp2.exe from microsoft.
Execute the file! this will install the HDA bus. If there s a problem you`ll see the exclamation sign in System devices (PCI device) you`ll update the driver for that. It Should automatically install the high definition audio bus for you.

After the high definition audio bus is installed properly(reboot). Your system should find the high definition audio soundcard. Now you update it`s driver. by giving it the right path for the audio driver(don`t let it connect to the internet, you have to specify that you want to install the soundcard, "have a disk and there you specify the location of the .inf file from directory sp36214\v32"). Let it install the driver even though xp will not like it. Reboot. Your Mic should work better!

I hope I could help!

Apologies for the lame 25 second wait, but you'll have to be patient Just enter the validation code and click download.

Now I got the 3.26.0.50 drivers, but the mic is not working, nor muting of the speakers when headphones attached. Thanks for all the assistance, but now I give up.
