No Active Mixer Devices Available Windows Xp

hey i get that error too but i can't find the mixer to install it please help me

i can't watch my favorit anim anymore i can't ear from the computer

please any soluing

hello,
this issue has been bugging many for the past few yrs now...well the main culprit has been microsoft...yes....they installed some updates in machines running winxp sp2 to make it compatible with the new ie browser version....along with the update the script had some codes that will change some irqs for ie to function properly..."security issues"

in that update process the script made some changes to the irqs of the sound chip on the motherboard of many pcs all over the world and made them useless....they did try to make some updates using subsequent updates...but i guess the damage had already been done...
well "some say" it was a deliberate "corporate ploy / strategy" so that people will move to win7 and in that process buy new machines...

how do i know these...well i worked / work for intel and ge in seattle / atlanta....if you visit the dumpsters in the community where you live in many us cities...you can witness many pcs dumped in there...well just imagine how much o

on your computer should have come with software. look for the cd that says drivers. and then look for the sound card driver and install it. you are getting this error because your computer needs the right driver for your sound card. if after installing the driver you still get this error, let me know. otherwise, you should be able to fix it with your drivers

here you go:

Volume Control
There are not active mixer devices available. To install mixer devices, go to Control Panel, Click Printers and Other Hardware, and then click Add Hardware.

This program will now close.

OK

can you post an image of the error so i can see exactly what it sasy on the popup?
