Angry Sound and Audio Devices

I upgraded to the Windows Media Player 9.0 and started getting an error message when attempting to listen to music of the web of: no sound device found. I found it strange because with WinAmp, I'm able to listen to my mp3's and midi files, so I know my speakers and sound card are working just fine.

I went to the Microsoft XP site and they recommended and the knowledge database recommended troubleshooting my sound files.

PROBLEM: The instructions say to click on "Advance" in the Volume Tab but it's greyed out.

Here are my settings:

1st Tab - VOLUME: No Audio Device (everything else is grayed out)

2nd Tab - SOUNDS: Sound Scheme is set to "Windows Default" (everything else is grayed out)

3rd Tab - AUDIO: Under "Sound Playback" and "Sound Recording" the Default Device for both is this: Model #0 Line Playback. Clicking the drop down arrow on both does NOT give any options except the same one. Where is says "MIDI Music Playback" - it's grayed out but the default is set to: No MIDI playback devices. There's a checkmark where it says: "Use only default devices" -- although if I take the checkmark away, it doesn't change a single thing.

4th Tab - HARDWARE:It has 7 devices listed and for each one it says they are working properly.

I am sooooooooooooo frustrated with this. I'm hoping you or someone can guide me. I think that "Model #0 Line Playback" may be the problem, but how do I change that?

Can someone please, please help me? Thanks
