Error: CODEC failure!!! how to rectify???

Hi,
i have a Win 98SE HP Pavilion PC (667 MhZ, 64MB RAM, Aureal Sound card).
today when i was playing the game "Age of Empires", all of sudden, there was a loud sound from my speakers and the system hung. i had installed this game three years back and had been using regularly without any problem...
when i restarted the system, the error that showed was:

Error # 11; CODEC failure. Driver not loaded

the real intersting aspect is that: when i remove my speakers (Polk audio) and use other speakers, it works fine.

also, when i use my speakers with another system, my speakers work well.

i would like to hear ur comments on this,
thanks in advance...

(^^;?(I don't know that Polk Audio what it is well. )

But it probably needs that audio codec to drive itself. Then check Multimedia Property whether the likely codec is working or not. Delete or Update it.
