Hello Everyone, My name is Eric. My audio does not work on my dell D420. It had worked in the past.

SigmaTel audio drivers installer help you automatically download and install drivers, for Windows 7, 8. Minnie Riperton Stay In Love Rar. 1, 10 & XP.

Then, I installed SP3, and now it doesn't work. I did a clean installed, installed SP3 then I started to install the various drivers for my laptop. When I try to install the driver from the drivers section, it extracts fine and the installer begins.

Then I get to the screen that says something about updating hardware database. Once I get there, it tries to re-extract itself again, and then it wants to open another installer screen. All that while the first one just quietly disappears. Thank you Message Edited by thejinx0r on 08:33 AM Edit: Sorry, I was a little curious to see what the 'Keep this message at the top of the board list' really did and didn't mean to sticky it.

Eric, yours is the first message I've seen here about XP SP3 and I don't know if there is something specific about it that would interfere with installing the Sigmatel driver. It's possible that the installer isn't seeing the exact SP2 configuration it expects. Are you aware of the following order of installation for the Sigmatel after reformatting?

Install Dell Notebook System Software (click the + sign next to System Utilities). Next install the Intel Mobile Chipset driver (click the + sign next to Chipset). Finally install the Sigmatel audio driver (click the + sign next to Audio). Rarely there will still be a problem with the installation at this point (in XP). In those cases follow this tip from forum member rpilT2005: check in the Device Manager for a 'PCI Device' with a yellow question mark next to it, under the 'System Devices' grouping.

Hit 'update driver' on that one, and it should find the driver. I have installed, and reinstalled the 3 packages. It still won't allow me to install the audio driver.

Oddly enough though, after I attempt to install the audio driver, and reboot the computer, the audio installer pops up, and tries to install. It says something a long the line of 'this driver does not support the hardware'. Also, when I tried the device manager, whether I did auto or manual and selected the folder where the driver was extracted to, I still get a 'Hardware was not installed because the wizard cannot find the necessary software.' Thanks for your help. Last time I did a clean install, before SP3 came out, I never had to install the dell utility thing. Message Edited by thejinx0r on 10:48 AM. I got it working now.

I'm not too sure what went wrong. Regardless, it works now. I think the culprit might have been FlyakiteOSX which modified some dll files.

Anyways, what I did might sound odd, but worked. I reinstalled Windows XP from scratch with SP3 enabled. I tried straight trying to install the Dell Utility, then the Intel Chipset S/W and then the Audio Drivers from Sigmatel. No go; same errors as before. So, I found on google that windows did not have the HD Audio driver, or at least a component of it, so I had to install the Realtek HD Audio Codec in order to make windows detect the Sigmatel 9200, at least as an audio device. I then proceeded with installing the Sigmatel Drivers as normal, and this time it finished installation and I was able to click finish.
