Finally got it up and running. If anyone needs the file name, it's 5.10.5258_MSXP_W_STACGUI_AC97FP.exe I'll let you find it yourself.

Ponch: That's the one that gave me the error message. The motherboard is an Intel (Schroeder Town) G33. http://support.gateway.com/s/MOTHERBD/Inte...006194Rmv.shtml Says something about Sigmatel / IDT-STAC9271 10-channel audio codec. Can't find anything about it though. D-Fox: http://driverpacks.net Get the cpu, chipset, and massStorage driver packs and use base to install them onto your xp cd. EDIT: Found this link: http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/CS-009244.htm#1 I can't find the drivers past that page though.

So, I just got through wiping vista off of my computer and replacing it with xp. Everything is running good, but the sound card drivers will not install. I have no clue about what model the card is, UnknownDriver.exe tells me it's by Sigmatel. Upon attempting to install the sigmatel drivers (Which I'm guessing are universal) I get the error message: "Device Object not present, restart the system and run setup again." Well of course restarting the system and running setup again doesn't help at all. The PC is a gateway gt5628. If any diagnostics info is needed then just ask and I'll get it. And yes I'm expecting plenty of "Search Button" type posts. I did search and every solution did not work on my pc specifically. EDIT: The driver from the gateway page for my pc lists only a driver compatible with windows vista. D20163-001-001.exe
