Go to Windows Device Manager.
In Device Manager. If you have a exclamation mark at your sound card?
Go down to where the exclamation point is
Right click to Disable, then Enable it.

That error code is the Direct sound driver, having problems.

Google for 'Direct Sound Driver' if you need a new download.
