HP XW4400 Workstation
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

 

Hallo all .

Here is my problem  :

 

Just installed a NVIDIA GT 230

HDMI audio Never functioning at all !

 

Data:

- XW4400 workstation 4gb ram

- OS windows 7 64 bit professional

- Video card with HDMI output NVIDIA GEFORCE GT230  ( HP made ??) 1,5 gb ddr2 RAM

- Installed last driver available  from nvidia site trought hardware auto search too !

- No installation problem or " ?" " !" on hardware devices  in windows  peripherals devices

- Driver installation wizzard installs this audio driver :  NVIDIA Virtual Audio Device (Wave Extensible) (WDM)

- Red cross on desktop tray at the speaker icon : " No audio deice installed " .. tranlated from Italian !

- Onboard realtek audio device disabled from HP  bios in both position/pages

- Cheking into windows services :  !! Windows audio service not present at all !! 

- Video card works perfect on my samsung tv on video side.

- Nvidia managment panel shows " all right no error " and recognizes regularly my Samsung tv as audio speakers.

 

It seams as windows does not recognize the audio device on the NVIDIA CARD.

 

someone has any idea to solve this !

 

Thanks

The video card is a original spare part from HP 533216-001 made by Pegatron .

It should be easier getting a solution  🙂

 

At this time i Have a new question : Using spdi connection for audio conncetion may not be better ?? .. at least the videocard may not have a best quality sound processor  so as may be on a good quality sondcard !

Do ou think the same way ?

 

Someone can help me ?
