| 510233 | 2006-12-27 22:28:00 | :help: I did a reformat a couple of days ago under the supervision of my big son. He has now departed home (and is unavailable for advice in the meantime unfortunately!). Everything is fine - EXCEPT I have no sound... When I look under Device Manager I find under Sound, video and game controllers that 'C-Media AC97 Audio Device has a problem ' and 'This device cannot start (Code 10)'. Any clues as to what I should do (other than go into a corner and scream!). TIA as always. Cheers R.M. :) |

| 510235 | 2006-12-28 03:07:00 | Ah yes - fiddling less, probably not! The second question - yes. |

| 510236 | 2006-12-28 03:52:00 | It seems that the driver for your sound card has not been installed. If it is on-board sound, the driver is usually in the Motherboard driver CD. Put in the CD and install the Audio driver and it should be OK . Good luck. |

| 510238 | 2006-12-28 04:59:00 | Go to the motherboard site and find the latest drivers for it and install them . Ah - you are so right, and I am so greatful again!:) For my next problem (I do quite a bit of photo fiddling) and use Zoombrowser to keep my photos in order . After reinstalling Zoombrowser - all was well for a while, but then I installed ActiveX (I think that was when the probs started) . Now when I try to start Zoombrowser, it won't and I get the error message 'Classfactory cannot supply requested class' . I thought I might uninstall ActiveX . . . But can't figure out how to do that, or indeed how to fix the problem with Zoombrowser . :( :confused: |

| 510239 | 2006-12-28 05:53:00 | No Problem :) Try re installing ZoomBrowser. What was the ActiveX? as far as I know you can only disable them... But to me "Classfactory cannot supply requested class" seems to be a program error related to the program, nothing else (possibly) and a reinstall should fix that |

| 510240 | 2006-12-28 07:07:00 | Try re installing ZoomBrowser . Tried that (twice) - but it didn't work . :( :badpc: I'll try asking in a Canon photography webpage as well . Thanks again . |

| 510241 | 2006-12-28 07:30:00 | Try re installing ZoomBrowser. OK - I did it again.... This time without cutting corners - and guess what, it worked! So again - much appreciation for you help, particularly your patience! :) Cheers R.M. |
