    so i have the broadcom that came with win 7

    i installed xp on it and installed all the neccesary drives. it worked perfectly fine until a day later it literally quit working.

    i redid the drivers and i can see that the hardware is detected.

    after the drivers installation and running "DTS_info" i can see the broadcom icon appearing in the startbar. so when i dont do anything, it appears as "inactive".

    it should turn to "active" as soon as i play youtube hd stuff (which worked fine initially) but now it is still in "inactive" state and i cannot play hd stuff...

    is this hardware issue?? cause i have done everything software related trouble shooting..

    HELP ME OUT!! thank you for your help in advance!!
