| 1264797 | 2012-03-14 09:14:00 | Could I have a response of a helpful nature this time please. The problem is that my sound card works for some programs and not fore others. Chameleon Clock no longer chimes the hours either. |

| 1264798 | 2012-03-14 09:19:00 | Get rid of all but one AV program and antimalware program for a start. And disable Spybot's option to check the registry whatever its called. This can screw things up | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1264799 | 2012-03-14 09:37:00 | So did you check the default output device? Some programs can be set to use particular sound devices, others just use the default. | dugimodo (138) | ||
| 1264800 | 2012-03-14 09:43:00 | Are you using Windows Vista or Windows 7? In both of those you can change volume levels on a per-program basis. Could be that some programs have had their volume turned off but not others. |

This can screw things up TeaTimer and it is not really TeaTimer screwing it up but people not able to follow instructions. |

| 1264804 | 2012-03-14 21:15:00 | I've never actually seen these 'conflicts' But, running multiple anti-anything programs with realtime scanners will at the least impact system performance horribly. You won't see them apart from slowing the system down but each time you open a file with three AV running they will be arguing (conflicting) over which gets to scan it first. Conflict = to come into collision or disagreement. |

Movies or music playing does, but not Firefox on its own. :p There may be some file assignations not right in FF, open tool/options/Application Tab - there you can select any type of sound/Program to a certain application on the PC already. Dont ask which one, as before we cant see what you have. re the Clock - did you check to make sure its actually got a sound file connected to it now and its actually working from that sound - Open the Application, Actions/Chimes/Edit/ Sound |
