You will have to uninstall Nortons and install a new anti-virus. It's not recommended to run 2 or more anti-virus programs concurrently.
I'm not too sure about what you mean here: "I believe I have the XP Media Center (it's on my monitor screen live). This might be the upgrade the service guy gave me as I believe that I had a XP Professional prior, but can't be absolutely sure. Anyway, when I put XP MC into the equation I get three choices. The last choice was for Developers which I suppose rules me out, but couldn't figure out the other two for a good choice." The link I provided for you for the drivers will get you were you need to be. Download that and install it, then reboot. Let me know if that helps.
