It is the 'Away Mode' driver.Nothing critical or needed, but installing latest chipset should resolve it:

Hi:

 

If the chipset driver does not install the away mode device, I have attached the drivers you need below.

 

You will need to do a manual install via a driver update from the device in the device manager and browse to the drivers you downloaded from here.

Hi:

 

You can either try the driver Cheryl G posted, or the driver I attached at the bottom of my post.

 

For the driver I posted, you will need to do a manual install via a driver update from the device in the device manager and browse to the drivers you downloaded from here.

Hello Paul,

 

I made the best mistake I have made in years! You mentioned the 3d post down and I was not paying attention and followed the 2d link to: http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_winxp_15.26.html . I created a fold as I always do and saved the zipped items in it. I then went to Start/ Control Panel/ System Properties/ Hardware/ Device Manger/ clicked on the Top of 2 not working and offered it to item with an "!" mark - yesterday a different name and a "?" and pages started flying from folder to folder everything loaded and new improved Buses appeared and were richer. The on-board audio was ready HD and ready to link with my Creative labs SB 5.1 USB drive.

 

Irish Luck saved the day!  Kudos for all your ideas and help.

 

Regards,

 

Tom
