Audio Drivers Problem with SP2

[Guest ktemp72]

Hello, I recently built a new system with Windows XP Pro 64bit with Service

Pack 2 Operating System included. So far, I have had no success in getting

audio working for my system. The problem lies within drivers for my audio

hardware. When trying to install these drivers, I receive and error message

saying: "HDA Audio Bus required". I have searched the internet for days

looking for a way to fix this problem and have come across many different

supposed solutions, none of which have worked.

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=901105 This is the link that I have been

referred to the most, containing the hotfix kb901105 for windows xp64.

However, when I run this hotfix, I receive an error message saying: "Setup

has detected that the service pack version of this system is newer than the

update you are applying. There is no need to install this update." I assume

this is because I have Service Pack 2 came pre-installed. I have also been

referred to KB888111wXPSP2. This download was supposed to be specifically

for XP Pro with service pack 2. However, when running this, I receive an

error message: "This KB888111WXPSP2 is for a different hardware platform."

This message leaves me with a dead end and no information on how to resolve

the issue. In addition, I scoured the internet forums and found another fix

that had worked for others, kb835221. When running this fix, I receive this

error: "Setup could not find the update.inf file needed to update your

system." I am stuck at this point. I have searched for hours trying to find

a fix for this problem, but there seems to be none. At some places, I read

that there are some files/drivers that can only be obtained from microsoft

support, files that are not listed publicly, however I am not certain these

statements are true. Any help you can give me in this situation would be

much appreciated

Hi,

First things first.

What is your audio hardware?

Is it a PCI sound card (Soundblaster, Genius, etc.)?

Is it a chipset embedded in your motherboard, a.k.a. onboard audio?

What motherboard, what chipset, what model, etc.?

Give us as much data as you can.

RE: Audio Drivers Problem with SP2

 

I have an Asus Maximus II Formula LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Mobo that came

with a SupremeFX X-Fi Audio Card PCI audio card. I am trying to use the

drivers on the installation CD for the sound card. Also, there are only one

set of drivers currently online so there is nothing I can get from Asus.

Hi,

This card is new stuff for me.

You might want to try ASUS specific forum for this card.

http://vip.asus.com/forum/topic.aspx?board_id=1&model=Maximus%20II%20Formula&SLanguage=en-us

Best of luck.
