Im having audio difficulties... The speaker and what not are all fine but anytime I try to open an audio file or open a video file with audio in it... It will either not play or say im missing a audio codec... At first it said I was missing a codec called

'tag 85'

so i found the codec and downloaded a bunch of other codec packs... but it did no good.... I then went into my volume control and as I opened it an error message saying "There are no active mixer devices available. To install mixer devices...etc" and i did what it said and went to the device manager and checked all the drivers and what not... and all were working properly... so im left with no clue on how to fix it... please help

im sure there is a simple solution, im just not smart enough to find it =/ ....please help as quick as possible

It may depend on your OS, but go to 'multimedia' in control panel and make sure an audio playback device is selected. And in the 'devices' tab check the mixer devices.
