Hello,
I have just reinstalled Windows XP Professional 2007 - sad story I'll not bore you with.
The problem that remains is with the sound system.
On boot up, after login, the familiar windows login theme starts but then stops half way through. The PC continues to boot and all applications function except for the sound system.
All drivers show they are functioning correctly in Device Manager. The only odd thing I notice is that 'Legacy Audio Drivers' Properties has no entry (is blank).
The volume settings are ok and not muted.
What is it that can disable the sound sytem in this manner?
Has anyone experienced this before?
