Re: Sound warping like an old cassette tape

Does sound like the drivers. If what Mark says fails I would try downloading
the latest drivers for your sound card from the manufacturers website.

Also start, run dxdiag. Then go into sound and make sure the hardware sound
acceleration level is set to full.

If that fails then try another sound card.

start/run, type:
devmgmt.msc
Highlight ALL the sound devices, one at a time and use the Action menu to
"Uninstall' them. Restart Windows to find them again.

Sounds on my computer have recently started warping and blurring like an
old,
stretched cassette tape - particularly WAV files such as music.

Sometimes the sound card gives up completely and I have to re-start
windows
to get sounds playing again...

Any ideas?
