i have everything except the audio working properly.

after installing all the drivers i can find i end up with a second hd audio driver with the yellow question mark and no driver i try will install to fix it. i start with 2 hd audio drivers the conextant fixes one of them and the modem one is also installed..

what the heck is the other one for??

i did use the microsoft one first then the hotfix for sp3 then the conextant and no matter what that extra one will not go away..

also no audio will play in media player or startup sounds etc..

Its Intel HDMI device.
The driver is bundled in Intel Video driver, it needs MS-UAA, install it before audio and modem drivers.

By assuming your MS-UAA have been installed, uninstall Intel Video driver, reboot, then install video driver again, it will automatically install HDMI device.
