I was having the problem for the most part was the fix. I did have to go
into the registery and deleted all "swenum" entries. Then uninstalled the
Plug and Play Enumerator. Restarted just for the hell of it, then installed
the Plug and Play Software Enumerator. It reinstalled without that Yellow
Exclamtion mark, installed the sound card again, and VIOLA I had sound again.

In services, make sure that the WinAudio service is enabled,
automatic, and running. Then in Device Manager, System Devices make
sure Plug and Play Software Device Enumerator is installed ok.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you need to reinstall the Plug and Play Software Device Enumerator,
copy machine.inf from %windir%\inf to a temp dir
remove line 20: ExcludeFromSelect=*
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now using the New hardware Wizard:
add new hardware \ have disk (select the temp dir
with the modified machine.inf) and install the
plug and play software enumerator
(swenum.sys is found in system32\drivers
streamci.dll is found in system32
or they can be found on your windows disk)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once that is reinstalled, uninstall the sound card drive, do a scan
for hardware changes then after it finds and reinstalls that card, you
should have sound again.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Good luck, and post back results please.

I really think this indicates that you're simply missing the drivers, or
that you installed the wrong drivers which would show the same message.
I don't believe so. I believe the problem is with the "Plug and Play
Software Enumerator" device which is not loading. When I uninstall
the ESS Allegro drivers, within a minute, the OS (Windows XP)
recognizes the "New Hardware" and automatically installs it. The
install works great and the device says its working correctly.

This is where I downloaded the driver(s). However, since I wanted to
do due diligence, I installed each of the drivers for XP that the
website had. It doesn't matter. The audio is working correctly.
It's just not "plugging in". Plus, that makes sense that my purchased
sound card would also not work. Installation, hardware and installing
of the drivers is all working correctly. Again, I say, it's just not
"plugging in".
Now, back to the "Plug and Play Software Enumerator" device. I've
read numerous articles that say this problem caused the audio to not
work. Unfortunately, their methods of resolving it has not worked for
me...yet. I'm still searching.
