Audio Errors #4
Error Message: “Code 28 (which says: The drivers for this device are not installed)” This error generally occurs in the sound card’s device properties after upgrading from Win2000 to Windows XP.
What it means: When upgragraidn the operating system, the WDM drivers are deleted. The newly installed Windows XP no longer needs those files and so they are deleted. But the problem is that the sound card’s software is designed to look for those files.
What to do: It might help if you check your existing sound adapter manufacturer for new drivers that is compatible with Windows XP. If there is no driver found then you are out of luck and the sound card will not work on windows XP anymore.
