you people are f**kin retarded. obviously she wasnt having a problem up
until now. if it were hardware related, it would have happened as soon as
she installed winamp, wmp ect ect, not a few days-months later. its a simple
driver issue. reload your sound card driver, reboot, and wa-la. at the very
least you might have to reload video+audio drivers at the same time. and IF
that didnt work, boot to safe mode, remove the sound card, reboot. you could
try to remove the vid card, but more than likely its a corrupt sound card
problem. how or why am i so sure? i encountered this at dell once, and the
sound card was the problem. also, since your running 98se, you might want to
consider at the least installing ME over it. or hell, just install 2k. it
has the best support+reliability for any MS os (fuk XP). and mapi, i
personally know burn, the author of winamp, and it uses FAR LESS memory than
wmp. in fact, on my 2k machine, it uses under 1.4 megs of ram. thats not a
memory hog...
