Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device, such as a sound card or sound controller. You may encounter this error message for one of the following reasons:

You do not have a sound device installed on your computer. Install a sound device, and then try to play the file again.

after installing windows on the drive did you run your m/b setup cd

johnbrownsdream

don't have one ebay computer

Can you tell us the motherboard make/model? Or do you have an extra sound card? If so, the make and model of that.

dai

you can d/load from the m/b manufacturers d/l section
when you fresh install windows you have to run your m/b setup disk so save them when you d/l to disk for future use
