The sound chip appears to be AD1981HD. The trade name is SoundMax from Analog Devices. (This link should all be one line pasted into your browser. My news server won't let me post the link as a single long line.) http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3765010& prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=3764998&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=2095 There is a driver package for WinXP. http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=321957& prodSeriesId=3764998&prodNameId=3765010&swEnvOID=1093&swLang=8&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=ob-62965-1 ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp39001-39500/sp39428.exe You should be seeing the same kind of control panel, that I have on my computer here. I have a different CODEC (AD1988B), but the design of the CODEC follows a common theme. There are some input ports, that can be looped to the main Line-Out. And that should allow a microphone to be heard in the speakers. (What I cannot tell, from a diagram like this, is how they decided to connect those interfaces, to jacks on your computer.) http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/data_sheets/AD1981HD.pdf I think you should have the same capability as I have. Do you have an icon in the tray, for SoundMax ? This is the icon I see in my tray, after the driver is installed. http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/img/soundmaxicon.jpg In this example, the Microphone has a red dot below the slider in the Playback section. You need to click that, to "unmute" the path. Clicking the red dot, should result in microphone sounds being played through whatever you have for a speaker. http://www.activewin.com/reviews/hardware/processors/intel/p428ghz/images/audiocomsmall.jpg Paul

On my computer, this link takes me to the HP 550 laptop download page. http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3765010&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=3764998&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=2095 If I test this one, I get a 7,204,752 byte file "sp39428.exe" . ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp39001-39500/sp39428.exe If I shorten that link, I get to see all the files available. "Index of ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp39001-39500/" ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp39001-39500 Soundmax has two different icons. The old icon was a blue triangle on the control panel idon. The new one has some wavy lines, like this one. http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/img/soundmaxicon.jpg Try to find the right driver for your HP 550 and install it ! HP offers an audio driver for WinXP. Paul
