I can't get any sound from either of them.....although the sound is ok using my Rio player.....i've replaced the speakers (my old speakers sucked majorly anyway) and i've reinstalled winamp.....but that didn't fix the problem......any helpful hints?

did you make any major system changes recently?

Also check if the Window Audio service is enabled, if you are using Win 2000/XP. PM me and i'll tell how to do this.

to dealie: all devices SEEM to be working properly and enabled; mute option is not enabled, sound levels are good.....

i have good sound quality coming through the rio player.....

Is your sound card driver compatible with your OS?If so,then try installing the latest Windows Media Player Codecs.Or,try to upgrade to WMP v.7 or 9. :fire

Perhaps you have Winamp and WMP's volume at zero........? Use the default skins.....

Perhaps you have them muted....you've stated that you don't, but yer a tricky one......

HAHAHA....cries for attention come all to easy for lil Ah! Leah...... ; P

Another common mistake is when folks uninstall they leave remnants behind and then install on top of them?Stupid!!


anyway I found your sig interesting however theres a moderator here that says no flaming(you prob. know who he is) so watch out=perhaps it's an issue of not being breast fed as a child well what do i know:shy

yeah.....they all seem to be real grumps when it comes to flamin' on here.......lol

just outta curiosity though....you were gonna flame me?

...my .02...check your firewall settings. Both of those players need to 'phone home' . If prevented from doing so ..they don't work.

gorphon
December 30th, 2002, 12:07 PM
ummm.... I never let either phone home, they still work. and winamp accesses the internet for its built in minibrowser, wmp does it for codec downloads, and god knows what else. mikehunt, I know you mean well but there is little to no reason for allowing those access. at least that I know of.
