Toshiba P105-S1624
Conexant High Definition Audio Device
Device Manager list:
High Definition Audio Device
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
Have tried downloading from Toshiba: driver_audio_conexant_25636A
But get Conexant High Definition Audio FAILURE.
If I try to uninstall the device but on a scan windows 7 wants to install a driver that doesn't work.
If I then right click on the device and select Update Driver Software... and browse to where it is located
windows 7 still tells me that my device is up to date.
anyone else have this issue?
is that a Full model name? Is it a Laptop or Desktop?Toshiba P105-S1624
I have an ASUS A6VC and I get the same error. Audio was working under 7048.
Since the Computer manufacturer has no Vista drivers you are in a tough situation. But Sound worked OK in Build 7048, whatever driver you have used in that build must work in 7100 ( provided you have a Win 7 Build 7100 download that matches the MD5 Checksum of real MS RC Build 7100 assuring file integrity).realtek hdaudio drivers worked under 7048.. now they don't. I did a clean install and the microsoft drivers are unable to start the device. Asus doesn't have drivers for Vista for this device (ALC880).
How EXACTLY you tried to install the above driver in the current Custom Install of Win 7 Build 7100?realtek hdaudio drivers worked under 7048.. now they don't
Try these two Google searches. maybe what you need is the proper codec.
Realtek HD Audio codecs?
Realtek HDAudio codecs - Google Search
ALC880 from Realtek - Google Search
or contact techniccal support:
Realtek

Have you saved the driver file that worked in Build 7048?
What exactly you meant by
How EXACTLY you tried to install the above driver in the current Custom Install of Win 7 Build 7100?
Did you use the Setup.EXE>Wizard method of installation or DM> Inf. method?
Man .. I understand you are trying to help.. but.. what does make you think I have problems finding the drivers? The drivers are at realtek website! That's not the point finding the drivers.. the point is build 7100 doesn't like the LATEST AND CORRECT drivers available.
... I'll try to be more specific about the situation: I KNOW how to install a driver. I know where to find the drivers and I have the LATEST DRIVERS available from the MANUFACTURER WEBSITE.. REALTEK .. the point is: BUILD 7100 doesn't want to use those drivers.. Drivers which are CORRECT for the equipment. Did I make myself clear? Are you going to suggest to run setup.exe or to try an oem install again? Or maybe to google for the hdaudio drivers?
None of the above.Are you going to suggest to run setup.exe or to try an oem install again? Or maybe to google for the hdaudio drivers
I will admit , I did not quite understand all the background information from your original very brief post and therefore I had to aks followup clarification questions, but there are so many capable people answering questions in this Forum and helping those in need for answers very effectively using different style. So I will personally take the blame if you are offended in any way and the Forum as a whole shouldn't be held responsible for that.This forum doesn't have a clue!
I will try to post one of the ways I used to troubleshoot the issue. I volunteered to post the steps last time (see above)but never got to them for obvious reasonsHi,
I have the same sort of problem with Realtek HDA. I installed Windows 7 Build 7100 from a fresh install.
No matter which driver I use (Microsoft Driver installed automatically or Realtek Audio Codec R2.22) I get a Code 39 "Windows cannot load the device driver... the driver may be corrupted or missing." My method for installing the driver was to erase the driver through Device Manager and then re-install. Same Code 39 result.
I also attempted to install the driver in Safe Mode. It actually installed the Microsoft driver "successfully" in safe mode, which it would not do on a regular boot, but when I re-booted, I still get a Code 39. The taskbar volume control icon says "No Audio Output Device Installed."
I built this PC with a EVGA 680i board. The EVGA audio driver does not work either.
Any help would be appreciated. I've been trying to sort this problem out all day. Thanks.

In the Windows\ system32 folder windows keeps a stock of old drivers anticipating a roll back from us and it often pushes the old and useless drivers down the throat when it can. That is why we get the problem . If we can stop that and then lead the device manager to the exact driver folder containing the .Inf and .Sys files for say VISTA 32 or X64 corresponding to our Win 7 Bit it ,often installs OK. So if Driver install via wizard fails I use this INF method. To make it a very prestine enevironment with no interference from any Antivirus etc, I disable all AVP/Firewall during the install. If you haven't tried that see if you can extract the exe to its components and save them to a folder for easy navigation. After not letting windows Automatically install its old drivers from System32 (by cancel) go to DM > Audio with ! Right click >Update Driver> I will find the driver >> Browse to folder where you have the Inf & Sys. It uses the Inf to install Sys.Thanks for the response. Valiant effort, but the same Code 39 Error pops up. It is odd, but when I'm in Safe Mode the driver (RealTek Driver) shows that it is installed successfully. However, when I boot Windows it continues to say "No Audio Input Device is Installed."
Just for kicks, I took out my Audigy SE from another machine and stuck it in. It does the same thing. I can install the driver, but the Code 39 still appears. When Windows tries to re-install the driver after I click on the icon on the task bar, it cannot successfully re-install. Windows doesn't seem to want to recognize either the sound card of the on-board Realtek HDA.
I think it is a stretch, but could there be either a driver conflict or even a BIOS complication? I only have a GeForce 8800GTS installed running Nvidia's Windows 7 drivers, and a wireless network card which is (obviously) working. No other add-on cards. The BIOS is the latest.
The Audigy SE is pretty old, so I'm not too confounded by its incompatibility. But the R.22 Realtek driver states (in its Readme) that it is Windows 7 compatible. I'm stumped, but thanks again.
