Recently, without me doing anything that should have caused it, the sound on
my computer stopped working. Every time I try and access an audio or video
file, I recieve a message telling me that the device is aready in use.
However, when I check the hardware configuration there are no conflicts
indicated. Also, the volume control is not working on the taskbar, opening
sndvol32.exe through Run doesn't do anything, and when I try to restore the
icon through the Control Pannel, the option is greyed out.
I have tried the following to solve this problem:
- checked the speakers, etc.
- tinkering with the System.ini settings per online databases
- reinstalling the sound card driver
- reinstalling Windows ME (it keeps hanging at around 66%)
- using Windows Update (I figured I'd try it)
This happened to me once before, about a year ago, and I fixed it, but I
can't remember what I did. Anyone have any suggestions?
Please either post responses here or e-mail them to o_s_card@hotmail.com.
