Howzit guys.
I'm having a strange problem with my Windows Vista. I can't play any audio files as media player seems to have stopped working for some reason. The story behind it is I did a fresh install of Vista on my machine, updated to nVidia's BETA sound drivers for my nForce 3 chip. Then everything was working.
The next day, media player decided to stop playing songs. If I opened and audio file, Media player would load the file, and the time line bar at the bottom stays still. If I double click the song in the right hand pane, within media player, all that happens is the play/pause button changes to the puase sign, double click it again it goes back to the play button....even my winAMP 5.3 doesn't work.
The only way I have got around this problem was to restart the machine and everything would be fine again, until I stopped a song or closed media player....then it wouldn't work until the next restart.
Now even restarting the machine doesn't solve the problem...
Any ideas guys?
Running Vista Business on the following machine....
Shuttle XPC SN85G4V2
1Gb DDR memory,
2.4Ghz AMD A64 3400+ CPU
300Gb HDD SATA Raid array
X800Xt 256mb GFX..
Other then that I have had no real issue with vista...oh I keep getting an error saying COM Surgarge? has stopped workig?
