I have a pavilion p7-1234 PC and use Windows 10. I downloaded Dragon Naturally Speaking by Nuance and whern I tried to use it it said it couldn't find a sound card. What can I do?

Hi,

 

Welcome to HP Support Forum. Your machine DOES have a sound chip/card

 

May be Dragon software requires a better one therefore you need to add a sound card on your computer. Do you know what is its requirement ? Or what is the version of the software. The following article helps you to buy a sound card for the product
