    Copy and paste this link into your browser.

    Just downloading the correct drivers wont necessarily cure your problem.

    You will need to uninstall the old drivers you have installed.

    You will also need to uninstall the device in Windows XP Device Manager.

    After a reboot Windows will notify you that an "Audio Devive was found"

    Tell windows to install the drivers but direct it to the location where you saved the new sound driver.
