Well heres the deal. I am not sure why, but after along time of working, my audio stopped. My girlfriend was playing a SNES emulator and the computer overheated and shut off. I thought nothing of it, since it is a common thing. Come back a week later and find that Winamp, Windows startup, and VLC or other media devices were not working. However I did get the sounds from AIM and the windows error sounds and all that fun stuff. After just restarting it a number of times, it all worked. Mysteriously. Then I turn it off for another week, come back to it. And none of it works.
I updated my sound card driver ( even though it is out of date since 2002) and there is only one conflicting device which is the game port. I dont know what that is, nor do I care really. I got winamp to work, but thats It. I just changed the output device to the sound card instead of windows default device. Which there in lies the problem. The default device. Upon going to sound and audio it says that I have no Audio device. Everything is grayed out. Cant click anything at all. I did the whole starting the stopped Windows audio device in the Administrive Services. But that did nothing. It turned itself off and then i turned it back on still nothing. I also set it to turn on 1 minute after an error. To try to keep it on. I did the windows trouble shooter. Checked numerous threads on numerous boards. Found nothing. None of the solutions I found help me.
Does anyone else have any more ideas?
If it matters at all I have a Creative Sound Blaster PCI 128D (WMD)
I want to listen to my movies!
