ey Gang,

This evening I noticed that I am not getting any sound on my machine. The only changes I've made are switching my AV from Command to AVG and Uninstalling Microsoft Publisher.

When I try to play a WAV file I get an error message from Microsoft Media Player saying "Cannot Play Back Audio Stream. No Audio Hardware is available or hardware is not responding"

under Details I get:

There is no sound card
Error ID = 0x80040256, Remedy ID = 0x00000000

However I do have a sound card. It is AC97. Drivers are SiS 7018. There are no checks Device Manager, Sound Video & Games Controller.

I have removed and reinstalled the sound drivers from the original disk. No Luck.

K7SEM mobotherboard, Win98SE.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Orangeman
