hi,
am using windows xp service pack2. sometimes when i try to play music i get the error -" unable to play back audio. no sound device detected on this system. the movie will play, but you will not here any sound." Then , if i reboot, i get back the sound again. Note: all other audio however can be heard except that this problem is only if i try to play music

What are you using to play media with?

Have you tried another media player?

Was there any changes made recently to the computer? Windows update, new programs, new hardware added?

What are your system specs?
