Like so many I am running WIndows XP and my sound has disappeared. I have tried going to Compaq's website (device is compaq presario SR1614X) and downloading the driver again..but doens't make a difference..I have checked all the drivers and they state they are working properly. From what I have been reading my sndvol32 file is corrupted..but can't figure out how to fix it. The computer has since been cleaned up from the 'corruption" however the volume still isn't working. I have tried downloading a new copy of sndvol32 and tried running it with still no luck..if anyone has any other idea I would be appreciative
I have gone to device manager and then to sound, video and game controller..just not sure how to update from there. Someone had said go to the website of Compaq and update it from there..but after doing so it still hasn't worked. Is there a different way of updating it in the device manager?
