I'm having the same issue - Did you find one?

P105-S6197

I extracted the vista driver and pointed the device to that location - It loaded but there is still no sound.
I think I got the modem driver to load that way too.

Fixed it.  I went to HP and downloaded their XP drivers from the site linked above. 

The Toshiba wouldn't take those drivers for the Conexant, so I forced it (chose from a list, "I will chose") it told me "this device may not be compatible"  Forced it anyway, audio is fine.

Turns out, Conexant puts some BS in each of their drivers that reference a ROM setting or some s(*& and so it's the exact same driver just looking for the HP version.  What a crock.

But it all works now.

Please ad a link to the XP drivers.
And next time post it as request........

And  post some HWIDS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe this will help some...
HP dv9200 CTO, purschased with Vista, needed XP 32 bit
Conexant "Venice" 5045 HD Audio & Conexant HDAUDIO Soft Data Fax Modem with SmartCP.

Difference from DV9000 series that was relaesed with XP was those had Conexant "Wakiki" 5047

XP drivers for DV9200 series not posted yet.

HP online tech chat actually helped.

For XP 32 bit with 5045 audio/modem...

first install "Microsoft Universal Audio Architecture"
ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp3250 … p32646.exe
(may also on the web in dv9000 series under XP, but might be not be the same)

this will load the HD bridge and identify the modem & audio as devices....

Audio Driver
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp34001-34500/sp34200.exe

modem driver:
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp33501-34000/sp33890.exe

Everything works, presume they will post these eventually.

I thought I had tried the Microsoft Universal arch. from a DV9000, but I tried so many DV9000 XP drivers and 32 bit Vista drivers from the 9200 series that I lost track.

this may help the toshiba folks if they extract the files from the self executable and install from device manager.

Excerpt from - http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=101584

"A note on HD Audio here: HP uses Conexant HD Audio on their consumer notebooks, but they use MANY different versions. The two main types are "Venice" and "Waikiki". If you select your HD Audio device in device manager, go to properties, then details, and finally select Hardware IDs from the property drop down, you should see your HArdware ID string displayed. Look for the part that says DEV_####. If that #### is 5045, then you have a Venice codec, and hopefully one of the 4 drivers I've posted will work for you. If that #### is 5047, then you have a Waikiki codec, and HP hasn't posted any drivers for those yet."

to identify, you havd to do this before dumping the Vista partition.

I have spent many many many hours trying to find this.  No luck yet.  I posted here because I saw you had the same issue.  There most be other people too.  Somebody somewhere most know something,  We just have to find them.

I have three Toshibas P105-S6197 laptops to downgrade to Windows XP Pro. At the present time I do have all the drivers xcept for the "Sound and Modem". Toshiba support reminds me of flused toilet paper...they are as helpful as winning the lottery..

I downloaded the driver from HP like you stated and it did not work at all. In your post your mentioning "Site Linked Above", my question is were is above.

If anyone can help it would realy be cool to get these two drivers, or how to install then correctly....thank you
