Hi Bookworm, I am having same issues as everyone here. Have recently done a clean install of XP PRO SP2 on my ibm t40 and cannot get sound and modem to work. No Audio device. I have updated BIOS, installed INTEL chipset, attempted to install soundmax driver from Lenovo site (which gives error msg of "Driver not found! Reboot your system and try again.") with no luck. Please help oh wise one and I will forever be in your debt.
