Does anybody know what went wrong with my music players
It says "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it might be in use by another program, or it might not be functioning properly."
and its the same thing if i try with other players...
counting on you guys for help
thanxx.

And I don't have any Audo Controller under the sound, video and games controllers like you do...wanna look at it?

uninstalled everything that u have under Sound, Video and game Controller, if you don;t see anything then re-start ure system in safe mode and see from there...

Thats how it is..
and there isn't any such *uninstall* thing mentioned.. so how do i uninstall?

Click on, Legacy Audio Drivers and hit Delete and then click OK, it should uninstall ure driver, repeat the same process to everything listed under sound video and game controller

and also I see that you have a "other device", click on to multimedia Audio controller and hit delete then OK...

After ure done deleting everythng restart ure system.

Once it get restarted, it will tell u "new device found" and will install the driver by itself..

if ure OS is unable to determine the driver for ure device (soundcard) u will need to search for the CD's that came with ure system if not the u will have to open the CPU, look for which sound card is it and search for the driver online.

It really won't work if i hit the delete key on the legacy audio driver or the other things listed under the sound video and game controller, what do i do noww...:'(

If you have any question u can email me as well...

Double Click the "Multimedia Audio Controller" listed under Other Device and try to re-install the driver, if necessary let window search the driver online

btw it works if i hit the del key on the multimedia audio controller device...

OK
BTW what is ure brand name model of your computer so that I can find what soundcard you have in the system?

umm its asus?
Its really taking forever for the wizard to search for the software... how long does it usually take to look for the software, its taking forever in this computer

its realtek ALC655 6-channel audio CODEC, i figured out from the motherboard user guide and i forgot to tell yu that i mistakenly deleted it last tym and then right after when i deleted it, the sound system stopped working!! .. how do i re-install it back... ?

I think the driver of the soudcard u have is not in windows system so u will have to install in manaully... could u be more specific on what kinda system you have?? Asus is a mother board company so do you have any model number on that?

heres the list of sound card driver, try to download one and install it for ure soundcard

you should have your Mother Board CD

If you do, browse that CD, under Driver folder there should be a folder called audio, you can find ure driver there as well if not go to the site
