Hey all, I have a little issue that I need some help with. I have a Dell Laptop running XP-Home and with sp2. Lately, when I boot up and my pc loads windows, I no longer get my speaker icon in my taskbar tray on the right as I used to. Then when I go to my control panel and 'sounds and audio devices', when I get to that pane, my option for 'place volume icon in the taskbar' is greyed out and I cannot get it to be enabled. Something has obviously turned it off or dis-abled it as I had it accessible/available before. Also, I know I have a sound card and I used to have sound. Now when I go to checking my 'audio' and 'voice' options in my 'sounds and audio devices' area no sound card is detected or shown and the area for picking one is also greyed out.
When I try to troubleshoot and play even system sounds, I get the following:
---------------------------
sndvol32.exe - Entry Point Not Found
---------------------------
The procedure entry point SetupDiGetDeviceInterfaceDetailW could not be located in the dynamic link library SETUPAPI.dll.
---------------------------
Any suggestions on what the problem and fix might be? Thanks...
