View Full Version : Soundcard dissapearing
Having an odd problem today.
My pc won't play any sounds :huh: If i go into the sound bit in control panel it tells me there is no audio device although when I go into device manager it tells me the sound card is functioning properly.
If i reboot it finds it again but then drops it again :wacko:
Any one got any ideas? It was fine yesterday, all i have done today is install winamp 5.06

Winamp? K, im not about to install that then...
:lol:
Well, you could try reinstalling drivers, check if there's new drivers on da net.
Or, if its on PCI slot, remove it for one boot and then put it back,
maybe even try different slot, depends on IRQ's thought...
:)
I ran dxdiag and got this message
DirectSound test results: Failure at step 3 (DirectSoundCreate): HRESULT = 0x88780078 (No driver)
yet in device manager it says it is there and is functioning propelry :(
heh heh cheers Mr Afrodude :D
All is wel with my pc again, took it out booted turned it off, put it back in a diff pci slot rebooted again it did the nesarry adding hardware stuff, I rebooted againand ran the dxdiag and all is well :01:
And i think I just got myself a job w00t!!

K, reinstall or install DirectX 9c.
I dont think one can uninstall it,
but there might be some little remover-app
out inda net.
Get DirectX from here: http://downloads.guru3d.com/
