    i lost my sound when playing a movie and an error ocurred, please help me

    i was playing a divx movie and it stoped, showed a blue screen quickly that said something about dumping memory and then my comoputer restarted. I am kinda new at this, any help will be greatly apreciated, thanks.

    infos needed:

    which divx codec is it? (use gspot)

    which codec do you have installed? (if in doubt, install the latest ALPHA of ffdshow)

    which player did you use? (zoomplayer will be my suggestion)

        Have you checked your volume control panel and made sure that none of the Master/Wave sliders are set to zero or mute?

              re-install an mp3 codec

              maybe the old one got corrupted

                  Are you able to generate audible sound from ANY type of file that contains audio in ANY format?

                      1) If you have a separate soundcard, check to see if it's properly seated and/or connected

                      2) Check ALL connections


                      Is there anything else that's not functioning properly on your PC?


                      Your soundcard may have died...
