re: Windows reports ''no audio device'' Saturday, October 11, 2008 at 7:08 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by KC607 (1 messages posted) Hi all. I've been having the same "No Audio Device" problem after reinstalling XP-SP2. I have tried everything in this thread and lots of suggestions from other boards and nothing has worked. I ind it amazing that people were complaining of this problem in 2003 and people (like myself) are still suffering from it now lol. Anybody have any other suggestions before I go insane? I've been working on this problem for 5+ hours a day for over a week now lol. All help appreciated.
