Ok, I never heard of this error, got it out from nowhere, no drivers changed, the only thing that I did was update my XP with Windows Update, dunno if I got any driver that broke.

Out of nowhere I got this error on my XP, can´t play games (that play music on midi) or use any synthesizer, it give me this error:

Here is my DXDIAG.EXE image (sorry, portuguese, my windows lang, but it's the same place/thing):

I can choose any synthesizer (the list on the right), press to test and will not play, showing the error.

Already reinstalled my soundcard drivers, same error. Restarted the PC, same error.

It was working before, dunno what happend, It's like something broked. Any sound, music, wave, mp3, works fine.

I have one game that works with these synthesizers (Final Fantasy 8) and it's crashing because of this.

My config:

Windows XP SP2

DirectX 9.0c (October 2006)

Soundcard: Audigy 2 Value.

I went to Google for anything on this error, and no luck, can you believe it ? Yes.

Got something about the Data Access Component (MDAC), so I tought, let's reinstall/repair it.

Done everything, reinstalled 2.7, nothing. reinstalled 2.8 SP1, nothing.

No luck

Thank you very much.

What about reinstalling DirectX 9.0c itself?

Sorry, forgot to say that.

Yes I did, installed the October 2006 (was using the August one)
