Vista Tutorial - DSP Group TrueSpeech™ Audio CODEC

Hi Mary. OK, ill give you another link here:

Free-Codecs.com :: Download Vista Codec Package 4.5.9 : With Vista Codec Package installed, you won't need to install any other codec or filter.

Hope this one works! If it does not, come back here and we will take a closer look.

I found this post on Yahoo Answers....it was a couple of clicks, and it works!

"I recently upgraded to Vista and was running into the same roadblocks. Luckily I stumbled across Bytescribe's FAQ page, which has a link to an installer that takes care of the codec installation for you quickly and easily.

The FAQ page is at http://www.bytescribe.com/support/vista.... , and you'll want to look under "Product Compatability List" in the section that mentions something called "Export Utility". There is a link there to a TrueSpeech Codec Installer .exe file on bytescribe.com's site itself that I have confirmed is a safe link.

The installer is located here: http://www.bytescribe.com/downloads/tsp_... . Download the .exe, run it, restart Yahoo Messenger, and you should be all set."

Hi Chris,

I've been trying your method from Feb1 that you posted to download the DSP Group TrueSpeech™ Audio codec, but I have neither $winnt$.inf nor mmdriver.inf in my System32 folder. Is there anything else I can do?

Thanks for your help!

I've tired everything to fix this problem and still no luck.

I'm using a Gateway laptop using Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit. I thank everyone for their previous responses but they simply did not work for me (probably because I didn't have a full understanding of each step). I reached certain points in the instructions where I couldn't locate the files being referenced (i.e., $winnt$.inf and mmdriver.inf), etc., so I couldn't follow the steps through to resolution.

After hours of trying to resolve an annoying issue with not being able to listen to my VOIP messages from work, I was able to finally listen to my voicemails with one simple solution. I visited Free file hosting by Savefile.com and downloaded an .exe application which installed the necessary drivers for me. I then restarted my laptop and, voila, the voicemails played just fine on Windows Media Player.

(Geloe777 on where to get DSP True Speech Audio CODEC? provided this solution on 27 Jul 2007. I hope it works for you!!!)

uh.. i can't find the $winnt$.inf and the mmdriver.inf in the Systems 32 folder....... is that normal?!?!!!?

Hey yac2x,

This was "normal" for me and caused a lot of frustration! I could not locate the .inf files they listed above. I think it has something to do with our version of Windows Vista, but I really don't know for sure.

I suggest you save yourself some trouble and simply try downloading TrueSpeech.zip from Free file hosting by Savefile.com. Once you extract the zip file, you should be able to install the .exe application, restart your computer, and that should be all that is needed. I was not required to follow any "complicated" System32 folder steps like those listed above. I simply downloaded and installed the file and it took care of the rest by itself.

Good luck!

I have Windows Vista Home Prem 32bit and done all the steps that you have.
Opened up WMP11 and the DSP shows up in the codecs.
I went to control panel, Add New Hardware, Install Manually, Sound And Game Controllers, Have disk, opened up System32 and the only inf file that's shown is ieuinit.inf, there are none of files shown in that folder.
