uknown audio device

I have recently installed my windows XP, the process went smoothly, but I had
encounterd some drivers issues after the installation.

I managed to solve the ethernet adapter driver issue, but I couldn't solve
the audio device problem.

I have tried many programs to detect which audio device I have, and using
this tool : DriverGuide ToolKit, I identified it as realtek audio device.
(I have an Intel motherboard)

I have downloaded the latest driver pack from realtek (called WDM_A400), but
I got an error that the driver is not XP digitally signed during the
installation (Altought it was mentioned else in the realtek site).

Could you please advise how can I solve this audio driver issue?
How can I identify my audio device hardware for sure?
Where can I download better drivers?

Please help I'm desperate :(

This is not the correct support forum for that type of question. You need
to target and XP forum.

Even if your driver is not signed, if you are happy to use it and it solves
your problem then its should be OK, its just not gone through the MS test
processes.
