Hello ComputerMan23,
You may need drivers rather than a codec. What is the make/model number of your audio hardware? -------------------- Regards

A codec is used to play audio as it codes and decodes the audio files. A driver allows for the hardware responsible to play sound. Can you look in the system's device manager for any conflicts or errors? Start=>control panel=>system=>hardware tab=>device manager. -------------------- Regards
