Hi,

I have NT4.0 and I error message when I want to play any music.
"Cannot play back the audio stream: no audio hardware is available, or the hardware is not responding. (Error=80040256)"
How do I detect my Sound Card and if I need a driver where can I it.

Hi,

I have NT 4.0 and I' ve no sound when
I play a MP3 file and any others sound's files.
I don't have message error , I see on RealJukebox the name of the song , the evolution of time and I hear a noice .
I think that this problem occurred after Napster's installation .I have uninstalled it
but the problem is persisting .
When I run notify.dat ,resume.dat or shared.dat (Napster's files) I have in Media Player window this error message : A problem occurred in initializing MCI .
I'm waiting for your advices to solve this problem .

Thanks .
