I can't seem to get the audio to work on my new unibody MBP under bootcamp... I've looked on the Leopard disk and can't seem to find Cirrus Logic Audio drivers either to manually install. Apparently it's CS instead of Realtek now... It's really bugging me. I've even downloaded Bootcamp Drivers (incl. update) from Apple, to no avail.

Have I been given the 'wrong' disk? It was passed to me buy a colleague - sealed but out of box, so it is possible.

Anyone any clues? Can someone browse the disk and post the contents?
 
The drivers should be on the official Leopard install disk. Which version of Windows are you using? And try using Windows' update, it sometimes suggests driver updates, maybe it will prove useful to you. :)
 
Which windows are you installing? I did this last night from my unibody mbp to windows vista 64 and it worked fine. Are you using bootcamp 2.0? (as well as the lateist leopard version).

I just put the leopard disc in on my windows install and it automatically installed everything

XP, just upgraded it to SP3 to see if that fixes it. Didn't.

Windows won't find drivers as it doesn't recognised the exact device, just prompts for a driver on boot. Even if I manually try all of the driver packages on the cd, it doesn't work.

If you browse the bootcamp setup file, does yours contian something related to Cirrus?

Mine has XP, Vista 32 and 64 drivers - but when I browse them, I see nothing to do with Cirrus, so I think Apple/my colleague may have given me the wrong disk when I picked up the laptop (they unpacked it as I was away).

I have the follow dirs in the 'drivers' folder: Apple, Asix, Atheros, ATI, Broadcom, IDT SigmaTel, Intel, Marvell, motorolaSetup, NVidia, RealTek Setup.

No cirrus logic/audio :(

Do you have a different folder?
 
Ah yeah mines got a cirrus folder with the audio drivers in it. Ill email you the xp installer (its only half a meg in size)
 
The leopard disc that came with your Mac will have the right drivers.

Leopard retail discs won't have all the drivers are they're intended on being universal (if that makes sense).

Glad you got it sorted though :)

It didn't have the right drivers. I've checked with the office and they just took the disk out of the box. I assumed they'd just given me one lying around. Odd.

Ah well, sorted now thanks to pingwing.
