Audio problems

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

Where is it that it is saying you have no output devices? Also, does
this just nag you or does it actually affect the sounds, sound quality,
or the usability of the computer in any way? If the computer works
fine, but just reports things wrong, I would leave it alone as long as
it continues to work.
