I have a NT machine that does not have and Sound or Mixer devices, so it says anyways. I get an error that says That the Mixer devices are either disabled or not installed. How do I enable the devices, what do I look for? Or how do I reinstall the Mixer and Sound devices? The cd-rom works, it will play the cd, but no sound will come out of the speakers. When I try to open the sound Volume control window it gives me that error, that the pc has no mixer device. How would the pc lose these devices? How do I get them back? I tried looking at the microsoft website, but I couldn't find anything. I'll take any help I can get. Thanks

I assume you have the drivers for the Sound device. Go to start, control panel. Click on multimedia, devices tab, click on audio device, and click on add. Select from list if listed, otherwise select unlisted or updated driver. Fill in path to drivers. (if it was listed you will need winnt cd and copy from cd-rom drive ie D:\I386 ) Or from the setup or startup files on disk from sound device installation software. Hope this helps and good luck!
