XP sure.
we are not HP (compaq ) why not ask at HP forum real for 1000x better and faster answers, yah?

the correct drivers were at HP support page, after 10 years,
they drop support. XP is dead so Microsoft Plug in play is now dead.
as is VISTA this year.
if at wits end, I do this. (ask) how.
what I do is use PCI scanner to learn what chips is there SOUND.
then go to the makers site and get it from them, on legacy machines
that is all you can do.

You didnt buy the HP media kit so only this is found.

ok you luck out today, its 2008 machine 1 more year and its gone
here is the VISTA sound/audio driver.

why not look at HP first. ?

    who's disks are those.
    HP or MS? we cant guess install disks or there sources, even home made and clone disks are sold, some full of virus.

    what do I do if hell bent on missing drivers
    easy, I use a PCI scanner to find that chip.
    i scan it and find its chip makers name and chip number (easy) then go to the makers site
    and get the XP driver, if it existed at all there it be.


    google finds this. (hard to navigate but./...)
    https://driver4u.wordpress.com/2011/04/0...

    see audio.? there?
    2007 release
    Audio Driver:
    ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp36001-36500/sp36408.exe


    sp12345.exe is hp installers btw.
    if the exe runs and tells you wrong driver
    it is, wrong, (for OS or wrong chip)

    the inf inside THAT SP, shows NT message, (means works in XP too)

    I guess this is the secret HP FTP sever.
    ive never seen this before...but is deep .
    if you know what SP12345.exe file you need
    Id look there first. see yours above.

    i think i found it.

Promblem in installation of Audio Driver of Compac presario C707TU

Check the Compaq/HP WEB site - download the latest drivers for the Windows version you are using. Sometimes the latest one does not work but the previous one will work. (I've come across this problem before and it is not confined to Compaq/HP)
