My computer booted up telling me it had to find a driver for Soundmax digital system. My system is not digital and I don't know where to go or what to do to get it back so it works right. Ideas?

Additionally, my speaker icon on the task bar does not come up with anything on either single or double click. Ideas?

Now I don't have the speaker on the task bar at all, but have downloaded Windows Media Player 9. How to get sound control back?

The task bar speaker is found via Control Panel | Sound and Audio Devices | Volume [tab] | [tick] Place volume
icon in the taskbar

Also check you Device Manager under Sounds... for any yellow "!"

Also what does it list as your sound device?

there is no listing for "sound and audio devices". What about multimedia? Where to go there?

What is the Operating System?

Multimedia is a good chance. What options are there? Volume?

Did you check Device Manager? For yellow "!"

To ID your Audio Source you can also check via Start | Run | dxdiag | sound | device | driver

got to sound1, but found no tab for either device or driver. It also said there were problems in the registry that were saved in the text file. Where do I see this text file?

What is your Operating System?

Also via start | run | dxdiag | sound

What is on that page?

Can you make a screen shot or type it out?

my system is not digital, so how to adjust this device for analog? I had Soundmax before, but could not tell how to make it run. I have 98se, BTW.
