Grrrrr

Yet another problem!!

My audio is not working at all, and ICQ has failed me

This is the message I get from ICQ:
ICQ caused an invalid page fault in

Yes, I've tried re-installing

Should I run Windows Recovery again?

Help!

Awww Joey baby, your computer sucks nuts honey. I'm surprised you haven't taken a big stick to it before now.

If it's *that* fucked, you may need to remove and reinstall the drivers for your sound card. Try removing them and getting the latest compatible set from the manufacturers website.

As for ICQ - are you sure that the fault wasn't me screwing around yesterday?

Write down all your contact numbers, uninstall it and remove the ICQ directory yourself. Reinstall and grab your account again. The fault may be that when you uninstall there are still some files remaining which you have to take out your self.

Keep us updated on your progress.

All better now sphinx
oops, I spoke to soon. I went so far as to re-format my hard drive and it fixed nothing. Off to the store to buy a new sound blaster.
