I need a conexant smartaudio 221 driver for windows 7

  • Anonymous Feb 28, 2013

    I just recently upgraded my laptop to a Windows 8 Pro 32 bit system and I am finding that there are a few drivers that are compatible with Windows 8. One of them was the nVidia GeForce 7000 series. I solved that problem and now I am trying to figure out how to solve the problem in Device Manager under 'Other Devices'. I believe that it is because I need an updated Conexant Smartaudio 221 driver. Under other devices, I see that there is an exclamation point next to two labels of 'Base System Device' and 'Coprocessor'. Any clues where to start with this mess?

Have you been to the Compaq/HP website to check your specific model for updated Windows 8 drivers? It's tough to know for sure...but "Base System Device" and "Coprocessor" are possibly parts of the motherboard chipset..and the SmartAudio 221 component is also likely built in to the motherboard. I would do a search on the HP/Compaq website, and possibly find the right drivers using their support tool...it may identify them based on your serial number. Make sure they have Windows 8 compatibility. If not, you may want to go back to 7 for a while until all the drivers can be updated for 8.

Xp driver for laptop conextant smart audio 221

Recently I had to reload the XP sound drivers on a hp compaq 733TU laptop. I have tackled this a coupleof years back but had forgotten the problematic task. Many drivers appear to work but with microphone issues. There is a Lenovo Conexant smart audio 221 driver that does do the job correctly after modifying the .inf file contained within the driver. The driver is labelled 6ea114ww.exe from here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=migr-70595 Using an extraction tool like winrar the 6ea114ww.exe file can be unpacked and the file TPUNHER5.inf can be updated using notepad to include your device id string from device manager.

HP dv9728cl need windows xp driver for Conexant high Definiation SmartAudio 221

I understand that you have downgraded the operating system from Vista to XP and you are unable to install Audio drivers in your Notebook.

To isolate the issue please install following UAA drivers and Audio drivers.

Here is the weblink to install UAA drivers.

ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp32501-33000/sp32646.exe

Please do not click on the link. Copy and paste it in a new Internet Explorer window.

After installing UAA drivers restart the Notebook and then install Audio drivers.

Here is the weblink to install Audio drivers.

ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp34001-34500/sp34200.exe

After installing Audio drivers restart the Notebook again to get the changes effect.

I hope this will work.

Thanks
