Sound Scheme

[superpimp]

I don't have sound schemes :s. Windows XP standard is turned on in the audio tab (control panel). Normally you can test the sounds by clicking a play button, the play button is disabled and I can't click it. This is very annoying because I also don't have sounds for MSN and stuff like that.

The strange thing is that other users on this pc DO have sounds

Could anyone help me?

Do you have sound at all?

Try to reinstall your sound card drivers. That might work.

Other users DO have sounds so..this is very strange..

Try to delete ur profile..

It's just the windows alert sounds (critical error, MSN, new email,...) that don't work because I have music from WMP and games

It has to be something related to your profile 'cause it works for other users on that PC..Do you have the same rights as other users, did you install anything recently which could make this error occur?

[superpimp]

well, it's been a while I think because you don't instantly notice it. I don't have any malware/spyware/viruses, just ran a check for that. I'm admin, like other users...

In control panel Sounds properties, are any of the controls (such as the volume slider) greyed out? Have you checked to see whether regedit showed them enabled?

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes]
@=".default"

If the value is ".none", try importing this before going through the trouble of recreating a user profile.

[superpimp]

the value is .current

I got it. It was a broken sound registry. I fixed it with K-lite codec pack tools...
