* No output audio device installed - the Fix

[daveisnothere]

Problems after upgrading windows vista? and/or McAfee not working?
you have to completely remove McAfee, and re-install it
uninstall using add/remove programs, and then use McAfee’s removal tool
you’ll find you can’t click on any javascript links

No Sound? getting the “ No output audio device installed “ message?
You’ll have to download and install a new driver for your audio device
clicking upgrade in the device manager didn’t work for me
but you can see what your audio device is and google it
lucky for me I could login to Dell support and it linked me my download
that’s when I found out java links don’t work, I couldn’t download the driver

I hope this saves many the frustration

You should install a Vista update (Update for Windows Vista
(KB929685)).

Download from here:
<snip>

NO! If you want to install a Windows update, *get it from Microsoft*!

It is hard to be sure who the poster is or what is on the site he mentions.

You can to the Microsoft web site http://wwww.microsoft.com and search for
KB929685.

That said, I Googled for the site the poster cited: it looks possibly
legitimate...I still would go to Microsoft, however

I've uploaded it, because Microsoft just let who has a Genuine Windows
to download it.

I've tested that in my Vista X32 Ultimate and it has no problem.

You can download from Microsoft's site, *I don't force you*! But this
is just a single update file and doesn't have anything else to be worry
about.

I was just responding with my normal paranoia. Note that I even admitted
that when I Googled for your recommended site, it looked legitimate to me.

Here's the problem: you are honest (in my current opinion) - but a lot of
people on the Internet are not honest. So, it is prudent to not go to an
unknown site recommended by an unknown person.

I did not mean to indict you: I meant to recommend normal prudence, and I
apologize for giving a different impression. I didn't express myself well
in that first post, sadly.

Mind??? You have no fu@kin' mind. You're replying to a TWO YEAR OLD post.
Oh. Forgive me. I see you're another techarena moron who can't read,
doesn't realize he/she/it is posting to a Usenet newsgroup, and has no idea
how to start a new thread.

Due to the fact you're posting from moronarena, and not quoting anything
from who you're responding to, no one knows who you're aiming this at. my
original statement stands.

MORON!!!!
