I have run into this issue with both the t42 and t60 laptops from IBM/Lenovo.
When you try to install the audio drivers downloaded from there website you
get a message "The HDA Audio bus driver is required and not found.". They
are not kind enough to point to a location where you can actually download
this driver. After many Google searches and digging around on MS’s poor
excuse for a website, I found I needed KB888111. In there infinite wisdom
and keeping in tune with there overall poor site design MS didn’t offer a
download link. Fortunately before formatted the factory IBM load I made a
ghost image of it. I was able to find the file 88811us.exe buried in c:\
IBMTOOLS\DRIVERS\UAAHDA2K, which did the trick. I hope this post can help
save someone else some time. Nothing like a 1 hour sound driver install to
end the day!
 
If you have access to the factory load you will find the XP file in c:\
IBMTOOLS\DRIVERS\UAAHDAXP\. There are two sub directories, xpsp1 and xpsp2,
the file is named 888111us.exe in each.

Microsoft gives you everything but the file on
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/888111. Thanks for being so easy to work
with Microsoft!
