How to find all Vista audio and graphic drivers for the specific model on the HP website?

[ Edited ]

     Important information

 

        You should test all Vista audio and graphic drivers which are on your model support page.

      When you will successfully install any:

      a) audio driver - please test your sound quality, mic and headphones. Choose this driver which gives you the

                                best results.

      b) graphic driver - please check your graphic card temperature.

     

      When normal installation will fail, then try to run this unsuccessfully installed file in the Vista Compatibility

      Mode.

      Resources:

      Remember to uninstall the old driver first before installing other one.

3. Choose ' Next '.

 

4. Click ' Software & Driver Downloads '.

 

5. Use the dropdown selector to select correct operation system and click ' Next '. Choose:

 

       ● ' Microsoft Windows Vista ' if you are using Windows 7 32 bit;

 

       ● ' Microsoft Windows Vista (64 bit) ' if you are using Windows 7 64 bit.

 

6. Click the Plus sign sign next to your Audio or Graphic driver. Newest release of drivers are listed first , but not 

      always the best solution. Previous and sometimes better working drivers are on the next page, found

      by clicking on ' (Previous versions available) ' link. You will be taken to a page with list of all drivers

      starting from newest to oldest.
