Computer help |
|
Quite a few months ago, sounds made on the internet stopped working. Winamp sounds work, AIM, etc. But nothing from my internet browser. Currently I'm using internet explorer.
Anybody know possible reasons as to how it happened/how to fix it?
Any help is appreciated!

Try using another browser, if it works fine with say, Firefox, then you know the problem is with Internet Explorer.
Try using google, I'm sure other people have had the same problems as you, and there might be a method to fix it already online.

I've been looking for an excuse to dl firefox anyways, hopefully that is where the problem is. If not I suppose googling works too.

Opera is better... but Fire Fox is good too. FUCK internet explorer, it's awful.

Control panel -> internet options.
Under the advanced tab make sure "play sounds in webpages" [just over halfway down the list in the multimedia section] is checked.
Thats all i can think of now but its kinda unlikely it would just become unchecked. If that doesnt work you could click the Reset button in the same tab.

that before. Right now it's resetting the settings.
On firefox, it says my java media player isn't enabled, currently working on that.
Edit: Resetting the settings didn't work.
Edit #2: I went to Control Panel -> Sounds and devices -> Sounds Tab
Then I clicked on one of the things in the lower box catagory with a speaker next to it and pressed play, this error came up
Windows cannot play the sound %SystemRoot%\media\Windows XP Battery Critical.wav. Your sound card may be in use.
Could that be the problem?
