The sound in the scheme worked then one day stopped. Then I got a virus and
when I put evertything back on the hard drive, which was cleaned and
scanned, I loaded XP sp1 then sp2, the sound worked again. Today it
doesn't???
I have Sound Blaster Live!, with the current driver. I have read all posts
for this subject and I tried a few things, but with no luck. Anybody ever
have this happen or is there aremedy or script to solve this?

Wharfrat why would you waste your time installing SP1 then SP2? SP2 contains
all the updates from SP1. The next time you reinstall windows simply install
service pack 2. There is no need to install service pack 1

I forgot.........only sp1 was available at the time and sp2 was still beta,
so that's why. I hust didn't time stamp the order of events.

Yeah ok, thanks John.

It twas in a different, thread on the same subject, you go to sounds under
control panel>to change sound scheme. Enter the sound you want. Click ok or
accept.
back out of control panel, then do the same step a second time.
reboot and it should work. It did in my case.
