Hi there, I'm having a problem with my dads pc which has been bugging me for several weeks. One day, audio from web page videos (youtube, google video, myspace audio player etc) disappeared - yet sound still plays in windows media player ad itunes. I've had programs like media monkey installed and reinstalled them, then noticed the sound had disappeared from websites shortly after this. I've tried WebSoundFix, to no avail. Reinstalled Flash player, still nothing. Tried the K-Lite Codec audio registry fixer, still not working. Reinstalled audio drivers, still nothing(although the drivers dont seem to be a problem as sound is played through WMP, itunes etc). There are several audio codecs installed, and I am beginning to wonder if a codec installed from an old program like Media Monkey has destroyed the function of my audio. the problem persists in IE, Firefox and Opera, so it is not browser-specific. At the moment there are 11 codecs installed, which are as follows:
imaadp32.acm
msadp32.acm
msg711.acm
tssoft32.acm
msg723.acm
Windows Media Audio Codec (this is the one WebSoundFix enabled, but sound no longer works in WMP)
Sipro Lab Telecom Audio Codec
Fraunhofer IIS MPEG Layer-3 Codec
Microsoft PCM Converter
The following audio drivers are installed:
C-Media AC97 Audio Device
Genius SM32X2 PCI Audio (WDM)
Genius SM32X2 PCI Joystick Controller
Audio Codecs
Legacy Audio Drivers
Media Control Devices
Legacy Video Capture Devices
Video Codecs
I've got a feeling there's more than necessary in those lists, but now WebSoundFix has changed the default codecs and now I am getting to sound whatsoever(
Please, if you know how, help me remedy this problem
Thank you!
