Is this machine upgraded from Win9x to SP?

C:\Windows\System is the system folder for Win9x machines & not XP. C:\Windows\System & C:\Program Files\C-Media 6501 Sound\Driver are not in your machine's $Path variable. The OS should not be able to use the loading point to locate the file. Did Creative's Control Panel applet used to load on startup before running ComboFix?
