Since upgrading (?) from Windows 95 to 98 I have a problem with wave
sound in some programs.

I get the error "MMSYSTEM326 No wave device that can play files in the
current format is installed" in Media Player. Some other programs
simply don't produce sound effects and others report that the wave
device is busy.

But, Media Player 5 and Quicktime can both produce wave sound.

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to fix this?

I've tried the Windows troubleshooter, but everything is correct.

I've bought a new sound card (which I was going to anyway), but
installing this has not fixed the problem. The previous sound card
worked fine in 95.
