    no sound?

    Locked

    by teasets ·

    All of the sound that I want to play while using the internet doesn’t work. For example all of the music on myspace, as well as all of he sound on youtube’s videos.

    The thing is that the sound DOES works when I listen to MP3s or watch movies through my media players (Windows Media, Real Player, iTunes, DivX), but just not anything that is on the internet.

    PLEASE HELP.
    I’m going crazy, it’s been like this for about a month.

      This is because your registry has been damaged or a value overwritten.

      Run Regedit, and goto the appropraite key below, right click and create anew string value called wavemapper once done double click or edit it and give it the value msacm32.drv

      HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32

      Im guessing your volume control didnt appear in your systray either right? also you can play sounds from the Sound and Devices panel (like the windows startup sound!) anyway this will fix it, if not it wont do any harm.

        • #2539477

          Ur gonna need more help

          by michaelkellyfrombelfast-subscribe ·

          In reply to still nothing

          If you dont know what regedit is , then you have a bit more reading to do my friend. Regedit is already on your computer. You should not use it though in case you mess up your machine as its the “brains” of your operating system so to speak. If you want you can still go ahead but don’t delete anything outside what I said in my solution.

          Click on the Start button (bottom left of your screen) and then goto RUN. In the box that appears type regedit.

          If that’s not there search your PC for regedit.exe and double click it to run it.

          Good luck. Read up on Regedit :http://support.microsoft.com/kb/256986 although juding by your reply this will scare you too bits, just try and do what I said in the post.

          In reply to OMG

          At least it works now. Enjoy!

          I guess you can repay me thus :

          Now that you can listen to sound sign the petitions to save internet radio:

          http://www.savenetradio.org/

          I don’t live in the states; maybe you do! so I cant sign the thing. http://www.pandora.com is the best little thing.

          Spread the word! good luck.
