on some old systems it doesn't autoinstall the drivers
because it doesn't know them, mostly because they aren'T easy to find anymore^^

had the same problem on an old pc of mine where I had to find the audiodrivers manually, but the company of which produced these soundcards died some time ago and the files were hard to find..

Have you done Windows update? In the "Optional" part there is lots of drivers for your PC.


Re: needing help finding the right drivers for laptop - legho - 19.07.2011

yeah done windows update, got all the latest ones, but like i said its an old laptop got service pack 1 on

I'm guessing you have lost the manufacture CD that was given to you.

Well he updated to windows 7, so i don't see how the manufacture CD will help him.

Use the CD while booted. It should include drivers.
