    this question seems to come up quite often now. so have you installed the microsoft uaa driver ? it´s needed to get the hd audio working under win xp.

    about the unknown device, could be the quicklaunch buttons. try installing the software for the quicklaunch buttons.

    Its never recommended to downgrade from the original OS... driver support is the #1 issue 100% of the time.
