Did you update your soundcard drivers?

also check the plug for ur speakers to make sure it has broken or anything, but most likely its ur soundcard drivers

nop, how do i find what my speakers are called because it doesnt say on them and all it says in the book that i got it from Stereo Speakers and creative soundblaster 128 sound

That hasnt worked :( When windows starts up the start up sound is fine and doesnt crackly so is there a problem with windows media player?
Posted by: Livy
try winamp, windows media player sucks ass. get winamp 2 series. or winamp 5.

Yep, it'll be drivers. Try also updating your motherboard drivers. You should obtain the latest driver releases for all your hardware.
Also, and this might be new to you, you might need to update your bios. Post your motherboard make and model if you're not sure and someone here will check it out for you.

soz, i dont know how to find out what motherboard i have got :(

You could look inside the case on the board itself. A manufacturer and model number will be there somewhere, near the edge.

i just installed musicmatch and the sound is fine so its something to do with windows media player
