Did the system come originally with a Windows XP Os or Vista. If it came with Windows XP pack then, you should also be provided with a recovery disk, which you can use for the purpose. If you have changed the OS, it will be difficult for you to install the driver. You can go to HP support website and get all the relevant drivers for this. Even you can select the model number. still if it doesnt work, it could be a hardware issue. Send it for a depot repair. Good Luck.

I would try a newer operating system like Windows 7 which is the current operating system supported by Microsoft and likely would install the audio driver automatically off of the Internet.

If you're set on XP running it, try to search for the driver on the HP.com website under 'v3000z driver'.

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)

Unable to install Audio driver

If your CD Driver is not working, try researching it in the internet. Go to the Compaq website and type your laptop model so it will find the right driver for your laptop. Once you find it, download and try to install it.
