Hi i am havinga problem in terms of sound on my xp pro PC. There is literely no sound coming out of my speakers when i play games and music on my pc. When i try to play music on musicmatch, it gives me the error saying wavOut not supported??
Secondly when i try windows media player it says that there must be somthing wrong with my sound card. I have a built in sound card called realtek AC97 Audio on a old ABIT IC7-MAX3 Mobo.
Also i have a windows skin and that skin does not appear properly anymore.Its a silver x360 skin that now appears with no picture icons.
I tried to reboot it but things got worse, i then got an error from windows explorer! I then Loaded a profile which doesnt have a skin and all seems find except for the sound!!
When i was logged into my profile with a xp skin, i clicked on the volume control and an error message saying that i need to go to control panel and add new hardware. i tried this and it diddnt detect any new hardware, i also looked at the sound card hardware and all seems to be working fine. However when i clicked on the volume control in the none skin profile, it worked but still diddnt have sound.
I only get sound when the XP boots up/shuts down or when i connect a usb device..
BTW, I Recently installed a new graphics card known has the 7800gs+ gainward bliss agp. since i installed that, when i play pro evo 5, the sounds somtimes gets cut off during the game. However its only this game that has the problem..
Any suggestions? thanks
