Multiple drivers, 'Data Invalid' message

[mkenyon2]

I have three devices I cannot seem to get installed on this machine.

System stats:
Windows XP SP3, up to date on patches
AMD Duron p
1.8 GHz, 768MB ram (I know... it's an oldie.)

Motherboard:
Gigabyte 7VM700M-RZ
http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=1764&dl=1#ov
# Northbridge : VIA KM400
# Southbridge : VIA 8235
# Super I/O : ITE IT8705F

The 3 devices I'm having issues with:
Onboard sound - Realtek AC97
USB Web Cam - Some no-name
Multi-Function device - Canon MX340

The sound card is listed as 'Multimedia Audio Controller' in Device Manager.

The properties say 'The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)'

I downloaded the latest from Gigabyte. When I install the drivers, they finish saying 'Cannot install, invalid data'.

I tried setting permissions in the registry for the device to Everyone - Full... still no good.

Bump...
Any thoughts? Please?

What can I try?

Update the BIOS and chipset drivers first. Then try the drivers. Also a long shot, try different RAM.
