[icanwalk]

My speaker/audio aint workin. Whenever I try to click on the icon of the speakers to give them volume, it says this "Cannot find MMDRIVER.INF file needed to install driver. This file may be damaged or not be in your SYSTEM32 directory" If someone can help me out of where to find the file or something I'd appreciate it

The software you are installing has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its compatibility with Windows XP. (Tell me why this testing is important.

Continuing your installation of this software may impair or destabilize the correct operation of your system either immediately or in the future. Microsoft strongly recommends that you stop this installation now and contact the software vendor for software that has passed Windows Logo testing.

Notes
