Video
HP dc7600 PCs feature the Integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950. Intel software drivers enable all
functionality of the video hardware. Driver support is complemented by a display utility that provides easy access to
video settings through the Windows Control Panel.
Audio
The dc7600 incorporates the new UAA (Universal Audio Architecture) hardware that allows for High Definition
audio playback with 5.1 integrated surround sound tracks. Normal audio playback is still supported as well. In
order to enable the UAA hardware Q888111 from Microsoft must be applied to the system before the RealTek
driver is installed. Both Q888111 and the RealTek audio driver are available from the HP support web site for the
dc7600.
