This question may seem redundant, but after reading almost all posts about
"audio and sound" system problems, still no success.
After a recent upgrade to XP from 2000 Pro, and after running device manager
and hardware many times, I found that I still have no sound and audio device
found. Tried every imaginable solution including: reboot, re-re-install in
"console" repair, unplugged and re-plugged system (analog) speakers/headset,
with computer off and on, speech option and printers/faxes in control panel,
DirectX diagnostic, and including adding in Intel (possible) drivers.
Followed other recommendations and went to other XP links-recommended in
prior posts and stiil no solution.
Hopefully, the information I'm about to post is not too much, but I'd
thought that I'd include all possible information for future generations to
review. Here's what I have.
