Hello guys,
I have just reformatted my computer with a Windows XP Pro disk because it had a virus that was too hard for me to get rid of. 1st thing I had tried was to get onto the internet, but it comes up with this error: Your current security prohibits running ActiveX controls on this page. As a result, the page may not display correctly. I've googled this issue and none of the solutions seem to fix it.
Also, I tried opening Windows Media Player and see if that works fine, but when it opens a music file I get an error saying: Windows Media Player 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 not be functioning properly.
For this issue, I think I need to upgrade/update my sound Driver? But when I looked to see if I had any Drivers installed, they all said they were working fine. I'm really confused and I hope my computer isn't stuffed. Can someone help me with all of this so I can have my computer back up and running?
There is also this monor problem, when I get an error like the ones above, the computer gives off a loudish quick annoying beep. And before it contracted the virus, it would beep on MSN from people signing in. Anyone know what that's from?
Additional information: My computer is Alienware, and it has a few little stickers on it; 1st one says FUELED BY SAPPHIRE, and Intel Core`2 Duo.
Sorry if this is in the wrong section.
