Topic: Conexant Sound and Modem drivers issue BASE 7.01.6
Hi,
I'm new here... Since this is my first post I'll start out nice by saying THANKS to you guys for undertaking such a massive project, and I think you've done an awesome job so far.
Now I've had a couple of issues with my first go at running a slipstreamed install. I ran it on a HP Compaq nx6125 laptop. Not bad considering that everything else went smoothly - WLAN, LAN, touchpad, graphics, USB etc all good. I'm just going to chuck them up here in hopes it helps you to make your driverpacks better! There were two problems with Conexant drivers:
1. Modem. No driver installed. It is a Conexant "SoftV.92 Data Fax modem with SoftCP Properties". Hardware ID shows as "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_4378&SUBSYS308B103C&REV_02" if that helps. This is the one I'm most concerned with as some locations where this install disc will be used will be remote, with dialup as the only connection available to the internet.
2. Sound. It tried to install Realtek AC97 instead and this doesn't work. It's supposed to be Conexant AMC. I noted a couple of other topics from last year with the same problem but they were closed so I thought I'd chuck it in here again.
3. "Mass storage controller". It appears this is the built-in card reader on the laptop as that isn't working (does nothing when I put in an SD card). On the working install (I happen to have two of the same laptops here, bought in the same batch and everything) in device manager it shows up as device category "PCMCIA and Flash memory devices" and the device is named "Texas Instruments PCIxx2 Integrated FlashMedia Controller". It appears the card reader is one of those things that needs several drivers installed; PCMCIA cardbus controller was installed ok (it has a couple of PCMCIA slots as well), "Secure Digital host controllers" was also installed ok but it needs that flashmedia controller as well to work.
I'm using all the latest versions of the driverpacks, I do the update check every time I slipstream them.
Thanks again!
