    Not sure the new video drivers are new ones but seems to be dated 16th(64bit) 17th(32bit)

    maybe the bios 9C.08.00 isn't too far away!

    to be straight about this. are our HDMI 1.3 or 1.2?

    there is an audio driver for xp32. not sure if thats a solution for the people having problems with sound on xp

    Go to control panel - device manager and select whatever piece of equipment you are curious about. Then right click it and click properties. A window will come up with tabs on it, one of which says Driver. You will be able to see the version of your driver there. Then you'll know whether the one you are looking at online is newer/same/older than what you've already got.

    It appears the only thing that's changed is the file names to more accurately list them as being for 32/64-bit OSes. Before, the only difference was a single letter.

    And I believe it's 1.3. Not 1.3a, and certainly not 1.3b.
