Any errors in Device Manager?

[doctorphibes]

yes several I thought about uninstalling them them reinstalling them but not sure. I tried to do some patching according to microsoft but now I don't even get beeps from the on board speakers(I think I know what caused that). I'm about ready to switch to Linux. Sick of all the crap.
Anyway, what would you suggest?
Thanks,
doc
Would it help if I posted a screen shot of device manager and the arguments that are present? Oh yeah I went to the HP website and downloaded the driver package for that model Pavilion zd7000

Well, you have to go to HP site, download and install drivers for all devices, which give you errors in Device Manager.
