Guys

Got a weird one!..

Recently my Laptop (see sig) has been acting strangly with its Audio system.

When I boot up the laptop I get none of the system sounds (.wav) or even the nice lady from Avast telling me "Virus Database has been updated!". But it will play mp3 files in all my audio programs (WMP, WMPC-HC etc..).

When I try and play a .wav file in WMPC-HC it moans about codecs, but it plays in WMP-11 and crashes!..

Strangly, doing an 'IT Fix-it-all' and rebooting everything works!!.. :confused:

Only thing I've done recently is I've purchased a WD 1Tb Essentials Hard drive.

Anyone else have similar problems, or know of a fix for this (other than rebooting!)

Sim :)
