040910 -         ..
040911 -    2.  On 090715 Ryan hoped upgrading Windows XP after configuration
040912 -        would solve device driver problems; he also discussed plans to
040913 -        look for these missing drivers. ref SDS 1 QE82
040915 -         ..
040916 -    3.  On 090719 updated Windows XP SP2 to SP3, and authenticated the

040920 -         ..
040921 -    4.  On 090721 1400 Morris identified the "unknown" device as the

040923 -        neither worked on c16. ref SDS 4 OY3H
040925 -         ..
040926 -    5.  On 090729 1700 took c16 to Fry's; Ryan was successful clearing

040935 - The Device Manager now only displays a yellow alert that only 1 device
040936 - is missing a software driver, and that is still for...

040938 -                    High Definition Sound
040940 -  ..
040941 - Ryan plans to continue looking for software to drive this device, and
040942 - will call if he finds something to try, and c16 can be delivered again
040943 - for further work to clear this missing device driver. per planning
040944 - during the meeting at Fry's earlier this evening. ref SDS 6 W242
040946 -  ..
040947 - After returning home this evening, launched c16 and opened the Device
040948 - Manager.  Tried to "update" Yellow alert notice for the High
040949 - Definition Sound device.  This seemed to work for some reason, when it
040950 - had previously failed the past 2 weeks.
040952 -  ..
040953 - The Device Manager now shows all systems are running.  There are no
040954 - Yellow Alerts showing devices need drivers.
040956 -  ..
040957 - Possibly, the driver has only recently been put on a server that the
040958 - device driver update program can find.
040960 -  ..
040961 - Not sure where the device driver files were stored, which will be
040962 - needed to install XP again if necessary.
