| message from Daniel JONES on 30 May 2004 |
Hi
Can you help, I've recently reinstalled Xp
after a virus attack and now I9 can't hear any
radio stations throught the Net, I don't know
if the technician installed a firewall, I can't see one
anyway, but he did put in Norton 2004 (I paid for it...)
Can anyone help ?
Thanks
Edna

Hi, are you trying to listen to the radio via Windows Media Player, or are
you using a TV Tuner w/ radio? Second question - Can you not hear the radio,
or is it not connecting?

There a few things you can do: 1st - and the most obvious - make sure your
if that's okay then 2nd: open volume control and see if your volume controls
are turned up and not muted - check master volume and wave (anyone correct
me if I'm wrong, WMP plays through wave?!?). If that's correct, then 3rd:
Open control panel|sound and audio devices | advanced, see if you actually
have a working audio device. Report your findings....Your tech may not have
re-installed your sound card / on-board sound...GL

Hi again
Properties of sounds = nothing available to apply, the tabs are dead, and I
get a message saying 'no mixer available ';
if I go into add new material it says everything's working ok
I have WMP installed though
any ideas ?!
thanks

Can I assume then, that you have no sound at all? Does Windows play it's
little sound thing when it starts or when it shuts down?? - I really should
have asked this from the beginning. If it doesn't, then your audio device
was not configured when XP was re-installed. You can try one more thing -
go to: start|control panel| system| Hardware|device Manager - look at sound,
video and game controllers, do you see a yellow circle with a line through
it (or something like that) ? If there is, then you need to install the
correct drivers for the audio device - You may want to have the Tech do this
for you as it's not always a straightforward process. GL

PS
one thing i don't understand; WXP asks me to reinsatll a driver
but the cdroms I have from Dell don't seem to have the driver needed
How do I reinstall the sound system ?

I've worked on a couple of Dells, and the approach is pretty simple - Go to
www.dell.com, click on support, or driver download whichever it is, look up
your model number (i.e. Dell Dimension xxxx)and find your way to the audio
driver download (to make sure you have the right one, go back into
system|device manager|audio and game controllers and write down whatever the
audio device is called)- make sure it is supported by winxp, download and
install it, xp should recognize it upon reboot...GL

Hi GL
Done all that and it looked like the solution
until the downloads for drivers didn't open
because of a 'kernel error'
Doesn't seem to be any way around it
Any ideas ?
Thanks
