Hi all, i've just built a pc from some older bits and peices i had laying around, and it doesnt seem to have any sound.. I did have a sound blaster 5.1 sound card in, but have removed this for the time been until i can sort the drivers out for the onboard sound at least.
It seems to crash when installing any multi-media drivers, so i've removed all pci cards and using all on-motherboard stuff.
When i try play sound in windows media player i get "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There may not be a sound device installed on your computer, it may be in use by another program, or it may not be functioning properly."
"0xC00D11BA: Cannot play the file
