ALEX, Did you find a solution? I notice this was posted in August and we're now in March '07. I have THE SAME problem. I have the file sndvol32.exe but my system can't find it. I suspect it has something to do with a PATH suddenly disappearing. Since I am the sole user/administrator I can't understand how this can happen. I had sound last night and today - after a restart - suddenly no sound and I get the error message that the computer can't find the file. There it is sitting in the correct directory but the computer can't find it. Does anyone have an idea?
