Also, I have WMP, Real Player and Quick Time installed and
Flash Player 9 as well. So I got an idea where to look in my
machine for the problem and I discovered these facts:
1. My speakers are working fine
2. My mic's are working fine
3. My sound card and driver works fine SoundMAX HD Audio
4. All my players work fine except audio when playing FP9
5. My windows sound recorder does not work at all
6. I cannot play MIDI files by default Microsoft Synth and I
have to use Quick Time to play it.
7. I cannot play my default ( and other themes ) system
sounds
8. Also, I can see Microsoft GS wavetable SW Synth when
setting Audio Properties but after apply it disappears again.
9. My all drivers are updated and machine as well.
So, I did realize that problem is in default Microsoft
Windows MIDI Synth but after spending hours on the forums and use
nets I couldn't find any solution to work around this problem
except to reinstall my windows. I also can confirm that this
problem have nothing to do with different codec installed like AC3,
ffdshow etc.
Furthermore, there is no any help on HP Support site for this
kind of problem.
SO, IF I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO FIND WORKAROUND SOLUTION I WILL
BE FORCED TO REINSTALL MY WINDOWS AND HAVE AT LEAST 8 HOURS OF
"FUN" TO SET UP ALL THE STUFF I HAVE NOW ON MY COMPUTER !!!
SOMETIMES I REALLY DO HATE WINDOWS AND THINKING TO SWITCH FOR A
LINUX !!!
