Multimedia Audio contrlloler is not installed properly due to an exclamation mark in front of it.

Question

Hi,
I have a Windows XP SP3(32Bit) installed on a Desktop Computer with a PIII processor, and 512MB of RAM.
My Desktop Computer with P 4 doesn't have any access internet since there is no network adapter installed. As a result, I would not be able to run the Intel  Audio Card Reader a web-based applet that identifies my Audio Card and finds the latest audio
driver for my Audio adapter.
I have Multimedia Audio contrlloler driver installed improperly since an exclamation mark is shown in front  of it in the device manager.
This is Hardware ID (PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_24D5&SUBSYS_97611849&REV_02).
I have tried to download the driver from
here:
However, I don't know which one of them I should download since there are
quite a lot of them, and there aren't classified as to 32-Bit, and 64-Bit versions of Windows Systems.
Thus, could you please help me to decied which one I could choose.

Hi,
It seems to be a soundMAX card in which case this file should work for you - http://www.mediafire.com/download/lo5nyw2utm2/SoundMAX_Audio_V510X6480_XP.zip
** Note, this file has not been tested by me personally - Please ensure you scan with AV post and prior extracting the ZIP, If it does not look right, do not install **
Its next to impossible to find vendor sites with the original drivers for this age of hardware.

If you find my information useful, please rate it. :-)
Thanks a lot,

According to the screen shots above, the Hardware ID is: PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_24D5..
The vendor ID of Multimedia Audio Controller  is 8086 and the device ID is
24D5.
I WAS EXPECTING THAT KNOWING THE VENDOR ID AND THE DEVICE ID WILL LET ME QUICKLY FIND THE APPROPRIATE  DRIVER. HOWEVER, NEITHER YOU, NOE ME FOUND THE APPROPRIATE DRIVER. 
I don't think that driver given is the appropriate driver since
I have tried downloading, and installing a soundMAX card  driver. However, I found these things:
I have checked the other Windows XP SP2(32Bit) which is oder installed, and it seems it infected by some viruses.
However, the Multimedia Audio is installed well. As here:
