| WMP is notorious for not having codecs and this will usually straighten it out alot of other issues. http://www.filehippo.com/download_klite_codec_pack/ Not sure on your PC but my audio drivers are in C:\drivers\audio\onboard |

| Open control panel>system>device manager. Then find the sound card in the tree menus, it will probably have a warning sign next to it. Open>properties>update driver on one of the tabs, then point it at the files you unzipped.
