Hello,
after I formatted my compaq laptop and tried installing sound driver I got the following msg
"driver installation failed : could not find the MEDIA DEVICE for this driver"
you have to install first sp32646.exe (Microsoft Universal Sound driver) then install the sp28481.exe (Conexant CX20468-31 AC97 Audio driver) . I solved it that way.
Download this software : kb888111xp2.exe
Open Regedit and go to :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows
Find CSDVersion Key
Legend:
100 (hex) means its SP1
200 (hex) means its SP2
300 (hex) means its SP3
Change CSDVersion from 300 to 200 and Restart
Install kb888111xp2.exe (Microsoft UAA Patch)
Change CSDVersion back to 300.
Restart
Install device drivers
Enjoy :)

If u have lost the CD of ur MoBo download ur sound card driver on the support site of the maker of ur computer. Or of ur MoBo if ur computer is a no-brand one.
Then run it.
