hello, im running windows server 2003 and i have a soundcard installed on my server, that was on my MSI motherboard. and AC97 it's called, the drivers are installed and so on but when i try to play audio files trou any radiobroadcasting system or windows media player it's saying the sound device is not working properly, also i noted i can unmute sounds on the server and i wonder why this is? the soundcard is working and im using the right drivers.
 
I've been encountering some random failures on my XP workstation where anything sound-related just ups and dies. I'm not saying that the player plays with no sound coming out, I mean that the progress bar doesn't even move. This goes for Winamp, windows media player, everything. I don't get sound back until rebooting, I'll hear the logging off noise right before rebooting. So it's some process running, bombing on me, and messing up the rest of my sound. I just haven't had the time to determine which one it is yet.
