I get the windows errors crystal clear Like the sound ya know?

It's not a Hardware problem.. They were working before I went to XP.

The audio driver is definitely not made by Conexant. Those folks make 56k modems and communications devices. I'll see if I can't dig up an audio driver. I should be able to.

Yeah it may be hardware-related. I've searched and searched and apparently the sound driver IS MADE by Conexant, which I've never heard of personally. I thought they only did modems and other junk parts. The driver I found is the same one over and over that you've already seen before so if it isn't working then it leads towards hardware-related issues instead, but I'm not sure.

Try using headphones? If it works, the speakers may be blown/ damaged.

Well it looks cool, in theory.. I actually haven't got it to boot.. lol

I click on the Ubuntu OS on the motherboard like startup screen... it goes to another box that says Windws XP in it..
If I click that it fails, and goes back.. and if I hit E I can edit another box in which I have no idea what Im doing..

haha.

anyways as for the driver, try installing windows installer 4.5 (again)... that did the job for me once!

Weird. Get another HDD, wipe it and reformat for a fresh install.
