There was an issue with the RealTekHDAudio but this was patched a while ago - something to do with a Windows Update trying to use something the RTHD driver was trying to use. The Microsoft KB reference is KB935448 and was issued about a year ago.
I had the issue just after I bought a new mobo and patched Windows up to date - this fix resolved the issue as well as doing the same on over 50 student laptops that we issued.

Re: XP SP3 coming..
think it re-enabled the windows firewall - which is worse than useless, on one of my PC's...
other than that not really noticed any differences...

Re: XP SP3 coming..
I tried SP3 through Windows Update and it too appeared to stop just at the point it was to begin downloading. I've since downloaded the redistrib version and installed it both at work and at home - the work PC doesn't have the firewall enabled and it was still disabled after the install.
