Solve : Crystal Sound Fusion Device- Help!!?

1.	Solve : Crystal Sound Fusion Device- Help!!?
Answer» I am having a major problem with this audio program, it took me 2 hours of rebooting and trying different THINGS just to get on the internet.... I am on Windows XP Pro, and havent had any major problems in the last few years until I moved last week and had to just take apart the computer and HOOK it up again, all of a sudden when I boot up I get a ballon message in the taskbar saying 'Found New Hardware, Multimedia Audio Control' if I close it or not the next message is 'New Hardware Found, Crystal Soundfusion (tm) Audio DEVICE'. No matter what I do I then get a box that comes up that I will display here, and this thing freezes up my taskbar where I cant get on the net or access anything in the taskbar, hence the reason I couldnt even get on the net, I dont have the disc it is asking me for, I even tried going into the audio device folder and turning of the soundfusion device and that doesnt help, so my question is, is there any way of turning off this message that comes up whenever I need to reboot? I dont understand why its coming up now after all these years just from hooking up the computer again, (It didnt even start doing this until a few days after hooking it up and using it) and the sound works fine on my computer as well. I'm not in a position to just run out and buy a new windows XP install disc at the moment, and wouldnt that mean that I would have to reinstall everything? Any suggestions? :-?No suggestions at all? I could use the help....Well, what we would need are some specifics of the machine - make/model of computer and motherboard, components, is this a legal XP, SERVICE pack number, are all updates applied, anything else unusal, etc. Details can be helpful.

I am having a major problem with this audio program, it took me 2 hours of rebooting and trying different THINGS just to get on the internet....
I am on Windows XP Pro, and havent had any major problems in the last few years until I moved last week and had to just take apart the computer and HOOK it up again, all of a sudden when I boot up I get a ballon message in the taskbar saying 'Found New Hardware, Multimedia Audio Control' if I close it or not the next message is 'New Hardware Found, Crystal Soundfusion (tm) Audio DEVICE'.
No matter what I do I then get a box that comes up that I will display here, and this thing freezes up my taskbar where I cant get on the net or access anything in the taskbar, hence the reason I couldnt even get on the net, I dont have the disc it is asking me for, I even tried going into the audio device folder and turning of the soundfusion device and that doesnt help, so my question is, is there any way of turning off this message that comes up whenever I need to reboot?

No SP2 because it is not genuine I suppose, and no Windows updates either? Have you contacted Microsoft?

Why would you spend $130+ for a LEGAL operating system on a PII with 128 RAM, a $25 machine, I have to wonder. But anyway.....CPU Type Intel Pentium II, 400 MHz (4 x 100)

Motherboard Name Hewlett-Packard HP Vectra VLi8

Motherboard Chipset Intel 82440BX/ZX

I havent contacted Microsoft yet, I thought someone here may have a simple solution until I can fix the problem with not being able to upgrade to Sp2.

If you need any other info just ask, and thank you for the help!

That model does not have a sound driver listed for XP from the HP download site:
