sound recorder stopped working

[rguse]

My sound recorder stopped working, that's not a big deal
for me but now if I try to chat I get the error message
that my system doesn't support audio compression. I've
looked for a fix on all the support sites but I cannot
find this problem listed anywhere. Anyone have any ideas?

Hi,

Sorry I do not have a specific answer, but have you tried the Microsoft
Knowledge Base?
It can be very helpful, if you submit a good query....
Here's an article I just got from it by searching for the exact phrase
'audio compression' then following one of the links that came up:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q307918

If it does not solve the problem, try the links listed in the reference
section at the bottom of the page.... (you might want to bookmark

I hope it helps you,
