DV8 Win 7 drivers???

[CaptainJack]

I performed a clean install of Win 7 on my dv8000 (dv8315nr).  I went with the 64 bit version.  It went very smoothly but I do not get any sound, now.  The OS  thinks that an audio device is not installed.  Presumably there was no suitable Win 7 driver?

The device manager gives "warnings/errors" for the following:

Mass Storage Controller (I assume this is the media card reader)

Multimedia Audio Controller

PCI Modem

I see a post that indicates that there is a driver under Vista for the mass storage controller - though I haven't tried it.  Are there similar "solutions" for the audio controller and PCI modem? 

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you for the info.  I've tried running each program, but the results are installation errors.  Are there particular steps that I need to take, other than executing the programs?

Thanks in advance.

Could you please give more information on the errors you received when trying to install them...These are actual drivers for Windows 7 64 bit...

I tried to install the Audio driver on my dv8130us but it fails with the message box:

Driver Installation Failed: Could not find the MEDIA device for this driver.

I have a dv8130us and have been able to get drivers loaded for everything except for the Mass Storage Controller.  I tried the softpaq that you listed for the Texas Instruments Media Card Reader Driver but it did not work.  Is there any other option?

Cant tell you how happy you've made me.Especially after running all over trying to find these and all Im getting is these "buy driver updaters for $29.99" E

VERY WHERE I go!!! SOOOOO annoying. I would kiss you ..if I could see you! Thanks Thanks Thanks!!!!

I tried the drivers in the message and all fail saying the device is not installed. I recently upgraded from the original win XP to 7 home premium and want to get the devices working again.
