Hi All,
Hoping someone can shed some light on this issue.
My well used and old XP based media server started glitching with hardware fails so I obtained an HP z400 to migrate to.
Prepared the boot drive and had no issues shifting the boot drive over, even the awkward SCSI card installed first time.
Accept for the audio drivers. The onboard audio is Realtek but I wanted to install a Soundblaster live card for the SPDIF output (the z400 doesn't have this!). I am unable to get these drivers to behave. All the Realtek drivers fail to load (old and newer) The drivers for the Soundblaster card fail (tried many versions). I even tried a cheap USB to audio dongle and that failed too (the dongle is working on my laptop). The HD Audio for the graphics card fail too.
I have tried all the usual, driver delete and restart install (including Microsoft HD audio).
Always the same fail "Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service" which is a silly error.
I have built a clean install with XP Sp3 with no issues with all drivers working well with no errors to prove this isn't a hardware or driver issue. so I suspect that something is blocking only audio drivers from updating on my media boot drive.
I have also tried loading the drivers by pointing to the working clean install system32.
It will take very many evenings to rebuild and reinstall all the software for a clean install (and to find all the keys,) so it would be great to find a solution to this one issue stopping all the audio drivers.
Any ideas welcome!
