Re: No system sounds-help

I have XP Professional and about a week ago all of my system sounds
disappeared. I have spent hours on this problem. The sign on and off
sounds, email notifier, error ding,etc. - nothing plays. When I have
gone into my control panel and the trouble shooting of system sounds,
an error message comes up that says "windows cannot play the
sound%System Root%\media\windowsXPerror(or ding,hardware insert)wav.
Your sound card may be in use". So I'm concluding the wav. files
aren't working?

I have also received some videos where the accompanying sounds do not
play.

Can anyone help?

Not me, I'm afraid. Something (but what???) seems to be wrong with the
set-up of your sound card, so that neither system sounds nor content can be
played. Most likely you can't play MIDI files either.

Check Control_Panel | System | Hardware | Device_Manager for a clue.
