That one is simple:
Intel FUBARed the codec, and you must remove it entirely. Just uninstall
from Programs and Features, then download and install teh SigmaTel codec
PREVIOUS to the one which is FUBARed.
I assume you have an Intel motherboard, so go to their website and find the
SigmaTel codec OTHER than the one marked "IDT...." for your particular
motherboard. It will be named "SigmaTel.....something or other".
