IDT High Definition Audio Driver Error
Long story short, Dell sent me a new hard drive to rebuild by Studio 1747 after Dell replaced the motherboard, LCD Panel and LCD cables. They did not have a replacement hard drive when the day old machine had the 7 beep issue. So they sent back the repaired laptop and told me a new hard drive would be sent later. I started the process of re-installing tWindows 7 x64. I was finally able to install the software and drives. I am sure I did somethings out of order, if there is such an order. Under the Device Manager (Sound, video and game controlles) section there are two devices:
High Definition Audio Device
IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
Everythings works until I reboot, then the Yellow Exclamation point is next to the IDT device and there is no sound. The error is "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupt or missing. (Code 39)". The drive installed for this device is IDT 6.10.0.6224 (7/16/2009). I can re-install the drivers and everything works until I reboot again.
I have tried to uninstall the device along with the driver and just let windows do it job re-installing everything. No such luck.
Any thoughts?
