Dear all,

I have a problem with windows sounds.
My sound card is ok, and I reinstalled the latest drivers, but I can't hear
any windows sound. In windows media player and games everything is ok, I can
hear mp3 without problem.
When I go to the audio control panel, and go to the sounds tab, If I select
one of the sounds to hear it, the play button is disabled.
And for example, if I open the windows sounds recorder, the buttons are
disabled too.

Anyone knows what can be happening?

thanks
It seems t
