After attempting to play Winamp I got an error that my drivers needed updating, but I fixed that error, because winamp somehow was using the wrong 'device.' (I have no other sound devices). This has happened a few times before even after a complete reformat. And not always with winamp, but win media. The last time it happened was about a week ago, but then I updated some windows stuff/vid drivers/ restarted and it fixed it, but before that when I restarted my comp wouldn't start up and had to reformat. The only thing I can think of would be to update the drivers, but i'm not quite sure where to get them, or which ones I need. In the windows update manager it shows no updates needed for my sound device. Any help solving and preventing this annoying problem is very appreciated. Thanks.

Type in your OS and download. I had to download the same driver on February 04, 2004, when I did new installation from Windows XP Home Edition to Windows XP Professional.
