3. Audio Drivers: Need Volunteer
I've been struggling for past few years to keep C700 audio drivers for xp available on the net. No upload is allowed since it is illegal to do that, so here i need volunteer to test this drivers since it is available in HP server. So no need to struggle for upload, re-upload, finding mirror file.
Here is the idea, get the original windows vista drivers for your C700 audio here:
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp40501-41000/sp40762.exe
Then install this drivers by installing the drivers first and ignore the error, then:
a. Click on Start and select Run. Now type devmgmt.msc and press enter.
b. Right click on “Audio device on High Definition Audio Bus” and click Update driver.
c. Select “Install from a list or specific location”.

f. Click Next and then click Have Disk.
g. Click Browse C:\swsetup\sp40762\spartan1.0\v32 folder and select the SprtHDza.inf file and click open and continue with the onscreen instructions.
