At the advice of my tech Guru buddy, I've now acquired a Steinberg UR22 Audio Interface MKII; he thinks that the UR22 will circumvent the issue with audio drivers.
The A.I. comes with a CD/DVD containing the drivers to install onto the laptop.
Of course(!) my new laptop doesn't have a drive, so I've also purchased an outboard optical drive (which I wanted to get, anyways), assuming that I can install into the laptop from there.
I'll report from the trenches again soon; thank you for your kindness to this newbie!
