If the OP was not using XP, then it might have suggested where to try next. Do you always criticize advice, but not offer anything better? |

It looks like I bombed on both accounts. |

Go to Control Panel, Multimedia, Audio tab and look in the "Playback" section. It will show you the "Preferred device" (which apparently isn't working). There is a drop down window there showing you other devices you can use...there may be none but if there are try selecting another and see if things work now. If not or if there are no alternative devices look in "Audio Devices" on the "Device" tab. Select the device and check its properties to be sure it is enabled. If still no joy, you need to reinstall your sound card driver(s). Go to Device manager (Win key + Pause/Break) in the appropriate section (probably "Sound, video and gaming controllers"). Do any have a yellow exclamation mark? If so, that is faulty. Select (highlight) the proper entry, remove it and reboot. Windows will locate a new device when you reboot and install the correct driver...if it is a 3rd party sound card you'll need the installation CD; if it is a Windows driver, you'll probably need your Windows installation CD. -- dadiOH ____________________________ dadiOH's dandies v3.06... ....a help file of info about MP3s, recording from LP/cassette and tips & tricks on this and that.
