does anyone know where to get a genaric anolog sound card driver for windows XP 64 bit ?

i looked online a lot and could not find anything, i have an HP zv5000 laptop, the website has "drivers" for xp 32 bit but they are really updates and i have to have an older version first to make it work, i looked a round in folders and found the driver but xp54 bit did not like it cuz it was not compatible. when i looked around on other site, it sounded like many ppl have sound driver problems on xp 64. grrrrrrr

and another problem is the video is chopy, i found the right driver but it did not help, made things better so i turned the hardware acceleration down and its way better, i dont get it.

the reason i turned to the windows xp 64 is because win xp sp2 and amd64 have a know problem, when a program hangs and uses 99 or 100% process it just hangs and system is locked, i have to hard boot, it sucks mucho, normaly AIM crashes and then trillian did and other programs and it got worse and worse. i have had problems since day 1

maybe some one could point me to another 64 bit OS

i did look around alittle bit but could not figure out where to download it for free like linux or bsd or something

Please help and if you could point me in to another community that would allso help, im still looking around
