Hello:
Suddenly today I got this message when I tried to play a music file.
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.
Then I realized that none of my sound players would emit any sounds. And, instead of the "start up" sounds coming from the speakers and headphones, there is just a little beep from the computer itself.
When I go to Control Panel and click on Sounds and Audio Devices, it says No Audio Device.
I don't know what made this happen or how to undo it. I have a webinar conference today and need to have the audio for it. Also, I can say that I did a complete virus and malware check (AVG) and there was nothing found.
I think that when I signed up for the webinar (Cisco Webex) a file was uploaded that nulled my sound device. At any rate, I would like to fix it. Would a "system restore" do? I don't know how to do that but I've heard about it.
Unfortunately I don't know what my "sound device" was originally. I think it came with the Mother Board and stuff.
Thanks for any help, as quick as you can.
In peace
Dr. D'Elia
