Hello:
In Device Manager - Sound, Video and Game Controllers (Win98SE) . . .
Crystal WDM Audio Codec
(!) Crystal WDM Audio Codec
Crystal WDM Audio Control Registers
PROBLEM:
In safe mode I delete those TWO "Crystal WDM audio Codec" entries and restart the computer.
Then, this "Crystal WDM Audio Codec" is detected on startup and the drivers are installed.
Then, I must restart the machine and "Crystal WDM Audio Codec" is detected AGAIN . . . SAME drivers are found and installed . . . but, in Device Manager this second one has an EXCLAMATION POINT before it.
Also, there are NO RESOURCES (tab) for this second entry.
The DEVICE STATUS says (code 10) - "This device is not present, not working properly, or does not have all the drivers installed. Try upgrading the device drivers for this device."
I have a feeling that this device should NOT be being detected the second time.
I tried "disabling" it - but I cannot keep it deleted after removing it.
I can remove the entries pertaining to this second device in the Registry . . . then it disappears from the Device Manager . . . but returns again with an EXCLAMATION POINT after installing drivers.
The only way I can keep this second entry out of Device Manager is to click on CANCEL when the computer detects it and wants to install the drivers.
Any help stopping this SECOND detection from happening will be appreciated.
THANK YOU.
