Weird problem with sound/internet

[Smokey_Monkey]

Can anyone help me please, I have a weird problem with sound coming from the internet, i.e. i have sound from windows media player, but not from things like myspace and youtube. Anyone know why this is and how to solve it? I also can't seem to watch youtube videos at all!. Any suggestions?

Edit: Ok, I have sound on the BBC player, but not on games (Desktop Tower Defence), and when I try and watch youtube vids they only play (without sound) for 2 seconds then stop.

I had this problem once before. A file had gone bad in my registry, and I had to fix it. Don't mess with your registry lightly though.

I don't have time to solve it for you but here is a good place to start.

Again Make sure you eliminated all other possibilities before messing with your registry.

Spoiler :

YES! I fkin solved it!! Something breaks your registry settings under [HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32] so the Wave connection is missing, then it dosent matter if you have all you vp6 or mp3 codecs installed. Save the lines below as a textfile with a reg ending, like "missing.reg" and 2x click it to import it to your registry and your golden Or if you have most of them, "Wavemapper" is the one flash is looking for.

Oops, sorry I probably should've mentioned that the problem fiexed itself somehow!
Thanks for the reply anyway, if it happens to someone else they'll know what to do now.
