Re: Audio problem software related



OK, I removed iTunes and WMP10. Still no joy. I reinstalled all
codecs. I replaced mciwave.dll and mciavi32.dll. No joy. So, here's
how it still stands.

I can play MP3s in WMP9. I can play audio CDs. I can play DVDs, but
with no audio. Wav files run in WMP9, but are not heard. Same with
sndrec32. No system sounds are playing. It has to be a Windows file
problem. What is the process that occurs when a wav file is played?

I tried one other thing. I can add wav files to the iTunes library and
they will play, but there is the same "pop" as when listening to iTunes
video files. So, does iTunes handle audio files differently than
WMP10? Doesn't this mean there is a problem with audio system files?

I have a strange audio problem that I have not been able to fix. I'm
working on a Sony Viao PCV-MXS20 running Home edition SP2. Here's the
deal.

I can play an audio CD with no problems. I can play internet radio
stations with no problem. I can play iTunes video, though the audio
has an occasional "pop." I cannot play any wav files. DVDs show
video, but no audio.

I have uninstalled all media programs except iTunes and Windows Media
Player 10. I also uninstalled all DVD/CD writing software and
reinstalled only the DVD player software that came with the computer.
I have remove and reinstalled the sound card. I have uninstalled and
reinstalled the DVD drive with current drivers. When I reinstalled
WMP10 I got one wav file to play, though it was a stream from the
internet. After inserting a DVD I was not able to get any other wav
files to play. The DVD had no audio either. If have also installed all
Codecs that I could find.

I believe this must be a software issue. Is it a Windows system file
problem? If so, can I fix it without reinstalling windows?
