SIGMATEL STAC 92XX C-Major HD Audio Driver For Windows 7When windows 7 released few years ago, I've been struggling to get windows 7 drivers for many laptop which build for vista. At that time, there are only few updates available to support older hardware. The best trick which mostly works for me is by using windows vista drivers and install it either manually or by using compatibility mode. Direct install normally resulting in error. This particular audio drivers mostly used by DELL notebooks but the installation method can be applied on all model. But today while I'm looking windows 7 drivers for dell notebook, i found an interesting way to install the audio in windows 7 using vista drivers.
Installation:
1. First we need to get the original vista drivers, you can get the original vista drivers from the manufact ure site. Here I provide the version which works on many dell model.
