Hi all,

I have the following problem..
I just got my laptop (Amilo Pa 1510) back from the repair shop..
and tried to play a file.. now my default player is vlc... and this didnt work..
when i tried winamp, it did work..
and for the rest nothing works.. browser etc etc
except for winamp and my "sound-card-mixer-software test"

I have Windows XP SP2

thanks in advance,

Amplitude

Configuration: Windows XP SP2

Hmmm you might try GOM player if its just not playing sounds, that might help cause you codec mightve out dated. if yoiu mean that there like no sound card at all supported in your computer. i can find you a few drivers that might help you out

Well no winamp plays sound but i want the sound to work overall it doesnt even work in games so that kinda sucks :p
and it isnt the driver cause its installed and you can play a test that comes with the software and that works

Well thats a very interesting problem. im not entierly sure how to fix that. but your computer might just be being a noob and muting when you boot a game up my computer does that once and a while. so that could be it.

Hi, late reply, but i have the same frkin problem. Like i switch on my computer, watch a movie on VLC / Gom player, and when i try to boot my Winamp it says it can't find the sound driver.. And if i boot Counter-strike and try to play videos over youtube and such after i've finished playing, The sound wont play in youtube.
