Welcome to Windrivers Berbs. The file belongs in system32. Click start, run, type in
msconfig
click ok
Make sure the XP cd is in the drive and click on Expand file and fill in the details

What do you mean "the method doesn't work"? You fill in the name of the file STREAMCI.DLL in the File to restore box. In the next box you type in where the file is - if your CD drive is E: you would type in E:\i386
And then you want it to go in C:\windows\system32

For all sound card problems with getting the right drivers that works on "Sony Vaio PCV-2232.
Well first of all,,, Sony Vaio PCV-2232 is not really your right model number. It would be,,, Sony Vaio PCV-RS420 and you can find all you drivers at: Windrivers http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-...PCVRS420&LOC=3 ,,,I know this is all true because I also needed the sound card driver.
I hope this helps you in many of ways. Thanks, Choppers

About sound problem, some time back my computer become just soundless. Then I had to call Support people and they give me this solution that worked out quite well in my computer.. They asked me to go to mycomputer icon and right click (click on properties), then I have the systems screen pop up go to hardware and click on device manager. The thing that I had to make sure that no unknown hardware, otherwise I may need the driver for the sound card.Then I just restart the PC completely, the other option suggested was to start-control panel-sound and audio devices and make sure that the correct sound card is default most computer's these days have two so must be checked... My problem was fixed after this solution,, so I may be lucky...

Why is it so difficult to find a solution on the Internet? Is it possible to resolve the following issue if I do not know what sound card has been installed: after reinstalling Windows there is no sound for videos? Like there are general Windows sounds but in any video player both playing online and offline there is no sound. I do not know what to do.
Any help would be appreciated.
Respectfully, Nick

Well, quite often it is because you don't look for the right things (yes Padiwan, your Google may be weak) or you didn't follow advice given.

So far, you have provided nothing other than this complaint - no system info nor have you indicated you went through all the steps outlined at the very start of this thread (assuming you posted in an XP thread because you actually have XP).

We really like giving help when we have time - work with us.
