Message: The file " on is needed.

[Vznry]

To sell my Abit AN8 with AMD 64x2 4200+ with 4Gb running Win 7, I formatted the drive and installed XP Pro SP2 (from original CD), Abit MB Drivers and SP3.

When I try to install the Media Audio Controller (Realtek) I get message: The file " on is needed.

The needed file is blank (should be "filename"), and the location (on filelocation) is blank.

check on the motherboard cd or on asus with your motherboard name and model .

I have tried ASUS, Realtek and even Lenova drivers. The properties for Media Audio Controller says: This device is not configured correctly. (Code 1). The file needed window is blank. . . so, even if I knew what and where the file is, It will never be found by the file locate window.

did you put back the nforce driver http/abit.ws/page/en/motherboard/motherboard_detail.php@pMODEL_NAME=AN8&fMTYPE=Socket+939 and the audoi file from then does this system came with a 32 bits os or a 64 one .

I fixed to problem after second format and XP CD with Sp2 reinstallation.

First reinstall I installed SP3 and all of the other driver packages. Same error message.

Second format and installation of XP W/SP2 I installed the audio drivers successfully. Then I install SP3 and all other drivers.

Thanks for your assistance and patience.
