Loaded onto HD, still no sound, can't seem to find out why it's all just a tad too new to me I guess?

bogstandard:
Darren,

Sound and printer drivers were designed to make computer operators turn cannibalistic.

It has taken all day to get all my drivers sorted.

Seems to function rather well here too.  Except that it thinks my screen is limited to 800x600.  Kinda makes things a little ugly.  OTOH, I got sound on the first try.

Stefan Pynappels:
Hi Darren,

Have a look at this thread, the last answer might be what you need.

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-mint-84/no-sound-in-lm7-761062/

Generally a good site for help with pretty much any distro.

Stefan.

EDIT: To be fair, I've had problems with that audio controller on WinXP machines too, the joys of IT support.

Darren:
Thanks,

I delved in and switched everything on, quite a few were off, but still nothing

I found this

the way I got sound working was while I was using linux mint 6. It refused to do the sound thing constantly until I found a bit on hp's site. As a consequence I added these 2 lines to my alsa-base.conf file
options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1

So I had a search for the confg file in question and it seems it's not installed?
Next I tried to install it

But I get a message "Could not find package alsa-base.conf"

TBH I'm getting a bit out of my depth here ...  :(
