Can't select anything...
For the second idea, was already automatic 
Any other tricks?  
Anything you can get me to do or look at to see if its a driver issue or something is wrong with my sound card??
Thanks for all your help so far  |
Just looked at mine, at bottom I don't have tick in "Use only default devices"
I'm not sure if it makes any difference but worth a try
Are you useing the onboard or a sound card, onboard are on the I/O plate about midway up the tower, a sound card jacks will be much lower down in an expansion slot, by any chance do you have 2 sets of radio jacks,
Look at this as well
Found this at Annoyances.org
Here is the REAL answer!! =)

I found this instructions when looking for an answer to this exact same problem, I followed the directions and wala! I now can see my sound card inthe greyed out areas again! Try it out fellas! Carl's solution worked like a charm for me, once I actually read it carefully enough to understand what was going on. It's truly a stroke of genius, and I strongly suggest you try his process before you go reinstalling your entire operating system. To recap in detail (for Windows XP; YMMV): 1. From Device Manager (be sure to select View/Show hidden devices), find the 'ISAPNP Read Data Port' device from the System Devices list. (Of note: once I successfully repaired this problem, this device no longer appears.) 2. Right click the ISAPNP device, and select "Update Driver" 3. Select "Install from a list or specific location" 4. Select "Don't search. I will choose the driver to install." 5. The step I left out on prior trials: UNSELECT "Show Compatible Hardware" 6. Be sure that "(Standard System Devices)" is selected under Manufacturer. 7. Under Model, scroll down until you see "Plug and Play Software Device Enumerator". Select this item, and select "Next>". 8. You will receive some frightening error message that you should probably disregard. 9. Complete the installation of the driver. You will see your device list magically change before your eyes. The other PNP devices will mysteriously become enabled and active. If not, restart. Thank you for posting this solution; it has saved endless hours of reinstallation, and perhaps a marriage as well.
Cheers
