HP Pavilion 752n Audio Drivers Solved - 05/08/08 12:44 PM
I'm going to post this here for google to find as it's apparently a common problem and our techs never found a forum out there with the correct answer.
Computer: HP Pavilion 752n
Motherboard: ASUS P4G-LA
Audio: AC'97 Down
Codec: ADI1981A
Chipset: 845GL
BEWARE: There are two different motherboards for this system. Make sure you're computer has the same chipset, etc.
The common issue is after a hard drive failure in a 752n, you haved no access to the hidden partition to access the recovery disks. If you reloaded Windows XP on one of these machines, you couldn't load the audio drivers. If you find the audio drivers online from RealTek, it'll get about 80% through the installation and the computer will reboot.
If you're having this problem, one of these two drivers should fix your issue:
