Sound issues.
Hi all,
After installing the 'nVidia multimedia update' from the Windows Update site last week, I can no longer open the nForce control panel from my toolbar. Any attempt to do so results in a 'sndstorm.exe has encountered a problem...etc' error box. The error code listed is 0xc0000005. My sound appears to still work, but I'm not 100% convinced I'm still getting 5.1 out of it, and without getting into the control panel to run the speaker check, I can't find out for sure. Has anyone else encountered this? Is there someway around this? Thanks all. |

They're all listed under Add/Remove programs, but of course they don't follow the same naming convention as when they were downloaded! Thanks for helping out! |
