Getting a sound card to start

by mheffner . Updated 24 years, 4 months ago

I accidently tryed to install a W98 Only App on a W2K system and somehow blew out the software to support my sound card. After I re-loaded all the sound card drivers, I no longer see the volume control in my sys tray. I went to the control panel/sounds and multimedia tab, the volume control is grayed out, clicked on the hardware tab, listed properties for the sound card, and it states that it is enabled but not started. The only sound I get is the system beep.

How can I start the card and launch the volume control again and get all my sounds back? I assume there is some registry entries that are hosed up.

Thanks
