MMJB Soundcard Problem I have installed a SoundBlaster Live 5.1 Sound Card in my Dell Dimension computer. It worked for a month or two, then only plays every now and then. I useually get this message when playing MusicMatch Jukebox: Waveout format not supported When I try to play music from Yahoo Jukebox, I get this: Playback engine cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There may not be a sound device installed on your computer, it may be in use by another program, or it may nto be functioning properly. When I click on the volume control in the taskbar, I get this: No active mixer devices, (etc.) I can get sound in other ways, for instance when I empty the trash, I get the paper crumbling sound. This works all the time. Or when I make and error and a pop up box comes up, I get sound. I downloaded the drivers from Dell's website. Could there be a driver conflict. Why is this happenning? |

Soltuion = install drivers. The card came with a CD for drivers which seemed to be very specific to her sound card even though it was a soundblaster card. I don't know if you have the same problem, but that fixed this one... |
