I have installed windows xp professional on a PC with an ATI all-in-wonder
TV tuner video card and a Fortissimo II sound card. I have downloaded and
installed the latest drivers for my hardware components. For some reason, I
cannot get any sound to play on this PC. Actually, the windows login sound
plays when the computer first starts up, but nothing else after that. When
I go to the "Sounds" utility in the control panel and try playing windows
sounds, I get the following error:
Windows cannot play the %SystemRoot%\media\Windows XP Error.wav file. It
may be damaged or may not be a valid sound file. Replace the file and try
again.
I have reinstalled the OS a couple times and get the same problem each time.
I always download the latest drivers for all my hardware, download and
install all the latest updates for XP, and even flashed my bios with the
latest version. Does anyone have any idea why I might be getting this
problem and how to resolve it?
Thanks,
Aaron
