    The DOS drivers. I already posted about them up there. They are real. ^^
    But they DO need legacy sound (SB Pro) to be enabled in the BIOS.

    My HP Thin Client doesnt offer legacy Sound in the BIOS.

    There are no "install CDs" or single driver files for HP Thin Clients, only images of Embedded Windows. :S

    I think it is an Astronaut Mainboard (Acer/AOpen, Wistron Corp) (?). Will check tomorrow.
