Dude type the followin in run dialog

Code:

sfc /scannow

And also insert Windows Xp cd in ur cd Drive

If this dosent helps uninstall ur sound driver and then install it again .

A

repair xp or type sfc /scannow in start>run

L

so how did it go? not sure what uninstalling/reinstalling sound driver would do? did u run hijackthis

do u hav a restore point?
use tht

sfc /scannow with the xp cd in the drive can solve the problem as far i think

^^^
if tht doesnt work do a repair install
i.e. press R when the setup shows ur installed version of XP in the drive u installed it.

try to go into safe mode or if that doesn't work then try to get to ur closest restore point. every time u install something it makes a restore point

you dont you restore your computer to best knows time.Easiest way

I like how people keep repeating the same thing over and over and over.... like the energizer bunny.....
Int86 I take it your problem is solved?
