    Hey all I just recently downgrade from Vista x64 to XP x86 and downloaded all the drivers. After trying to install my Audio driver it says that the Audio Bus is required but not found. Where can I download it? Thank you

    ...you just unleashed the curse of x64. x64 is very sensitive to people who "go to the other side"...kind of like the MAC-fanatics, but not really.

    have you installed the microsoft UAA driver before installing the driver for your sound ?

    xp does not know HD audio by default, so you need to teach it HD audio by installing the Microsoft UAA driver.
