One of our WinXP SP2 machines is showing this (yellow question mark) in
Device Manager (don't know how this this has gone on, staff member told me
this a.m.). Tried searches on google, but keep getting pointed to for-pay
driver sites, so reinstalled SP2, no change. Upgraded firmware for the
Intel 82801 AC'97 portion -- no change.

Can someone point me to a resource to correct this?

TIA!

Audio drivers are often part of the 'chipset' drivers for the motherboard.
To see if you can fix a device showing a bang, or exclamation point, the
best first try is to uninstall the driver, and restart to load it again
automatically.

Good idea, but there's no driver to uninstall and a reboot had no effect.

I would contact the maker of the motherboard for the chipset drivers.
