Sound... or lack of...
 

when I play mp3's no problem.

But I don't get sound from web-sites or even if I go into properties and press play to test different system sounds.

any ideas?

strange that MP3s will play, but not systems sounds...try going to c:\windows\media

thats where all your systems sounds are stored, and try opening them with whatever you use for MP3s, does that work? or is there even any sounds in there?

I play them and get no sound, same w/ things of the web.

But, mp3's and mpegs etc... movies and music play no problem.

are you sure your midi volume setting isn't muted?
