Hey, I apologize if you guys take offense to new members making new topics.
anyways, here's my problem:
I've been using the icemat siberia headset and sound card for a couple months, and before that I was using the on-board sound of my Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3.
A few days ago, my pc crashed and when I got it running again, if I tried to run any mp3's or sound files at all, it wouldn't work, and if I try to go to my volume panel, it just gives me a "no active mixers available" error. I searched this up and found that some people go to run>services.msc>windows audio, then try restarting it and making sure it's set to auto. mine already was but I tried stopping and restarting it. this never worked for me, and I've tried that, plus reinstalling drivers serveral times. I tried with both the icemat usb soundcard and the motherboards sound, and when I check my sound, speech and audio devices, there's nothing registered there and it's greyed out.
I tried a system restore which didn't help, and I really don't want to reformat right now.
Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.
