Going insane in the Brain
Hey every1 this is my 5th day without being able to play games or listen to music and am contemplating suicide . I have read and tried some of the advice on the nine pages listed under no sound, but sadly no sound. My nightmare began on PornoTube the site I was drawn into. After trying to Run a clip to no avail, my compter suddenly rebooted itself and I knew. Yup on my toolbar was a big red circle with an X, after rebooting advised me my compter had been infected and it was installing software to help before I lost important data. So a scan starts running without my permission and informs me I have like two hundred errors and it's gonna cost. Well right away I uninstall this software and reboot. The program is gone, but still on my toolbar a big red circle with an X saying the same thing. I quickly notice that during the reboot I did not hear the usual bells and whistles and hear I am. THE VITALS my system is a GATEWAY 500S purchased 2002, OS WINDOWS XP Home Edition service pack 3. I have added RAM, NVIDIA graphics and of course the Windows XP. I see in my Device Manager under Sound these titles Avance AC97 Audio, Legacy Audio Drivers, Legacy Video Capture Devices, Logitech Mic, Media Control devices..All with a yellow circle and black exclamation inside. I have uninstalled and reinstalled all drvrs, but get same results, I tried updates for all I could find and still no go, but now have new titles under sound such as; Microsoft Streaming Clock Proxy, MS Streaming Quality manager Proxy, MS Streaming Service Proxy, SoundMax Integrated Digital Audio this one I tried to reinstall. I spoke to Gateway thru online help told me I needed a new PCI card. Sorry so long any help appreciated GREATLY & THANK YOU.. DESPERATELY Alex
