Re: window media player
 

that means your sound card/driver may not be installed correctly. check device manager in system properties. (right click my computer, properties, hardware, device manager.) see if whats there as far as sound drivers go. (in sound, video and game controllers) who makes your computer? you may be able to go to their website and download and install the correct sound drivers. lemme know.
