Keep Hearing The Sound Of The Recycle Bin Emptying
Aug 5, 2005
It seems as tho something is working in the background and I hear constant crunching of the recycle wav like my recycle bin is being emptied or files are being constantly eaten. I just uninstalled Norton 2003, am using WIN 2000 NT and a Dell Latitude laptop, all of which I am slowly becoming familiar with (don't care too much or being networked so far!). At this point, unless it's critical, I don't intend to take frantic action, but this noise is bothering me and I know I'm not imagining it. Also, a Trojan (Trojano-CJT i think it was) was isolated and deleted by avast! I also ran S&D, Yahoo antispy, CW shredder, and Lavasoft. I also found alchem.ini and deleted it.?
It used to be located at C:WINNTWEBRECYCLE.HTT.... now is on my desktop and I still hear the crunching quite often... I noticed it is in full caps. Has anyone heard of this??? Is it part of networking, or maintenance, or perhaps Norton left something behind as usual or maybe this is a virus?
When I try to delete something, it says: "Cannot delete Dc177: Access is denied." The only way that I can delete anything is by right-clicking on a file in the recycle bin and deleting it. But even that does not fix the problem, when the recycle bin is empty, the icon shows that the recycle bin is not empty, but no files appear in the recycle bin. The last item I deleted becomes the "invisible" file that I can't delete. I am stumped.
I keep hearing a static/popping sound from my speakers.I used my headphones and I still hear it so I don't think it's the speakers. If I put a movie on the pc I can hear it but, the static/popping sound is louder. I unistalled and re-installed the audio software (Sound Blaster Live! 24-bit) multiple times along with restarting the pc and it still comes back.I have 5.1 surround sound. Dell Dimension 5100.I opened my pc to look at the hardware and I don't see any problems.
Now, once the "Windows is Starting" screen appears, nothing happens on screen when you try to type (e.g., when entering her password), BUT, if you HOLD the key down, as soon as the keyboard auto-repeat cuts in, THEN the letters appear. (You can hear a clicking sound from the motherboard speaker with each and every key press.) To enter her password she has to press each key long enough for autostart to begin and then quickly lift her finger off the key to prevent multiple instances of the letter. HOWEVER, once she gets into her account, the problem is gone. There also is no keyboard problem BEFORE Windnows (XP Pro) starts up. We tried doing an OS repair but it did not change anything.
alright, i got mad last time iw as here and swore i'd never comeback but well i'm desperate I have managed to somehow recycle my recycle bin. Can't find it in a search.
My system is set up with three harddrives and multiple partitions on each drive.I know that if I just delete a file, it's stored in the Recycle Bin and not actually deleted, even if I empty the bin.However, since the Recycle Bin is on the C: drive, if I delete a file from another drive's partition, and then I use Eraser on the Recycle Bin to overwrite the files inside, are the files still on the partition and the empty space on it now has to also be Erased?
After a while my sound will cut out and when I try to play things in Winamp or anything it will stay stuck @ 0:00The sounds will sputter for a second and then freeze. Also when the sound dies, sometimes programs will start to freeze up to the point I can't even kill them in tskmgr. System sounds don't play either.I've tried updating to the latest drivers. I tried an older version of the drivers too.
I get a series of low pitch beeps about every hour for a second or two no matter what's running.It's not a system beep, much lower in freguency. Everything else is working fine, good audio for all playbacks.I don't have a system speaker attached to the motherboard. The sound comes thru my Sound Blaster powered speakers, even with the volume off.
I recently upgraded my OS to WinXP Pro from WinME, and there is no sound. I right-click My computer, go to properties, hardware, device manager, then there are 2 yellow circles with exclamation points in them under Multimedia Audio Controller (Intel 82801AA ac'91 Audio Controller), and Unknown Device (Microsoft MPU-401 Compatible MIDI Device). I tried to reinstall them, but it says There was a problem installing this hardware: Intel 82801AA AC'97 Audio Controller. An error occured during the installation of the device. The data is invalid.
I recently purchased a refurbished computer from Fry's Electronics. It seemed like a very good deal, so I went ahead and took it along with others who were taking them.
I finally got my internet up and I began to play Counter-strike. The sound sometimes messes up. I can hear other peoples shots just fine, but when I shot, it is almost silent.
This started last night, the only thing that I did that was out of the ordinary was ran Avast's thourough scan fully, but even after that my sound worked, so it didnt delete the driver to my knowlege, but when I do a dxdiag and look at my audio, it doesn't exist, there is no sound card installed, and allI use is my DFI Lan Party UT RDX200 CF-DR mother boards on board sound. I tried installing the driver again fom DFI and to no success, now when I went to install the drive again, I got an error saying that this device isnt approved by Windows. Could windows be preventing my audio card from working?
When i start my pc skype says that he hasn't found recording hardware. Itunes doesn't work, like Windows Media Player, Winamp etc. The sound is gone. I tried to fix it myself, cause i disabled a driver that seemed to have a problem, but i don't remember what the name was. Now not only the programs have no sound anymore, but windows is silent too. It sure wasn't the driver of my sound card. I installed Everest and he doesn't find any Windows Audio, and says the realtek has "noDB". When i am in the music tab of the "Diagnostic help program for DirectX" "windows synthesizer" test sound doesn't play, but the realtek does.
This is about sound issues from the computer as in cant get sound from the computer.Went to computer properties then multi media controller has yellow question mark next to it so tried to update driver it goes to the wizard but it will not find any drivers for it without a cd which dont have. Tried roll back drivers says no drivers are backed up on file. Went to sound audio video game controllers audio codecs says all the codecs are working for this computer. Control panel sound audio says no sound device is connected. The sound card is realtek ALC655 AC 97 enhanced audio controller. Again got these drivers from foxxconn and exactly same issues. Extracted the files easily enough from wizard but when go to exe run folder the run it says cannot find setupfilex.dll. Then go to gxdver it dont do anything. Go to exe icon run and logger then it goes cannot run please find the setup exe file from the directory. In the folders cannot seem to find anything that will install the actual drivers without a conflicting issue somewhere. So everytime download this compressed driver folders for the drivers it has problems when the files are extracted.The sound card is enabled and mutli media controller says code 28 drivers not installed.
For some reason I have no sound for you tube videos but otherwise sounds work as normal. I'm running XP using Firefox on a Dell laptop. I've tried it with IE and still no sound.
My laptop is running windows xp home edition. it's packardbell, i bought it recently and updated service pack 2. since then it plays music for couple of minutes and sound goes off along with the volume icon on the taskbar. i tried control panel - sounds - show icon taskbar, but it doesn't work until i restart the comupter. i don't understand what could be wrong.. hardware or software. if it's hardware then the sound icon doesnt' disappear all of a sudden with out an error message.
Having NO SOUND problem for 3months. Received tech help from 4 microsoft techs but no success.All set up for sound appears ok.Observance.SOUND & PLAYBACK, SOUND& RECORDING, MDI MUSIC PLAYBACK all grayed out. AUDIO.Cannot adjust volume,cannot select mute. Audio Driver enabled but inactive due to an unknown problem.
I am trying to change the Start Windows sound in the sound scheme. I downloaded a fanfare i wanted to use and changed it to a WAV file, but when Windows starts, i only get the first note, about half a second. When I click on the sound in the change sounds in sounds and audio device properties, it plays fine.
I did a reinstall of Windows XP and I can't get the sound to work. Here is the sound card:Sound Blaster Live! Platinum rev.5 CT4760P. My computer is upgraded and so it is a hybrid system. I downloaded the driver for Sound Blaster Live! from the website and it still has the same problem. To be sure there was no on board sound, I took out the card and the computer said I had no audio devices which means there isn't a on-board sound card.
i have a dell latitude d620 and the sound volume is very low. All the levels on everything are set on high but this makes no difference. i tried uninstalling the driver and downloading the driver from dell. Reinstalling the driver but this still made no change
I succesfully update my BIOS "flash it" but lately , my sound its making some funny stuff ( like... poping sounds) and the "cliki sounds" of Windows when you open a folder, change page, etc. sometimes it sounds like a interference of a radio (bruugggtttt ) short my sound example ok , well , then it fix by itself , but then later comes again . my windows media player sounds ok, for now , havent notice slow in music yet , but musicmatch somtimes sounds funny , just the start opening music (intro) but songs OK.by the way I update my nero , so I uninstall and install the new version , I didn,t configure Nero to open wav files or sound files .should I need to update my sound driver for the chipset of SoundMax ?
When I was cleaning up my program list I accidentally removed my audio driver. I have been unable to find the same driver, or even a working one. HERE is my computer. I tried downloading the drivers from that site, and also from Intel.com ,but none of them have worked
I can play an DVD movie and the video works fine but I have no audio. I can play an music cd and the sound works fine. I tries it in media player and nero. Media player is a pain half the time it won't play an movie because of some rights problem. The movies are legal out of the store. I use to run a audio cable from the cd and dvd's to the motherboard in the old days, but haven't in a while because the audio would work either way. This is new MSI board with on board audio and works fine with music cd's but no audio on video's. I did get sound to work with movies but only after installing WinDVD7. I noticed that it installed a DVD Audio driver. Why don't the other programs have that like Media player, nero, realplayer. I thought that a fresh install and update of XP would have all the drivers for DVD as long as we have been using them
I miss a step or screw up formatting just let me know. Earlier today I downloaded a sound driver for my card hoping to update it. It caused lots of problems. But first the normal details: Quote: Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (build 2600) 2.65 gigahertz AMD Athlon 64 FX. I have also tried removing the card, starting up the pc, rebooting, and then returning the card with no luck. I've tried uninstalling the drivers entirely but they always seem to reappear when I reboot
I recently reinstalled Windows XP onto my computer, over an existing -- damaged -- installation of XP, on the C: drive. I was warned at the outset of the installation that proceeding could cause some components to function improperly. After the installation, there were 5 "Other Devices" listed in the Device Manager, which I believe were my video card, my audio card (2 separate entries), my ethernet controller, and something else that I don't remember. On another computer, I downloaded the appropriate driver for the ethernet controller, and then installed the driver on the Dimension. I can't get any sound out of my speakers, once the Windows environment has loaded. However, on startup, when the Windows blue screen loads, the greeting jingle we all know and love projects out of my speakers, but then once I'm in the XP environment.
I got my updated Display driver no problem, but the Sound is another story. According to the DirectX Diagnostic Tool, I was using a Crystal Audio Driver from Cirrus Logic. So, I Googled a newer version of the driver and found one. When I told it to install, nothing happened, so I thought, well, I'll just uninstall my first one and then install this new one and everything will work. After I uninstalled my previous driver, the new one still wouldn't install. So I tried to reinstall the driver. Then I downloaded a driver from the official Cirrus web site and every time I click the "install" button, a message always pops up saying "Driver didn't install correctly." It doesn't tell me why or how or ANYTHING. And now my computer has no sound! Whenever I check the DirectX Diagnostic Tool, it tells me, "No sound card was found."
I reinstalled XP and updated the drivers, including for my soundblaster audigy 2 card and now i cannot get sound from any application; however, i can get sound (from speakers) when Windows boosts and at startup.
my recycle bin shows itself to be empty, but when i click to clear it, something weird happens, it asks if I want to delete WINDOWS. I'm assuming that this means the directory C://Windows, which would be catastrophic if I were to restart the computer. I have a Compaq Presario R3000 running WinXP Home. Today, I both CrapCleaned it, as well as used Registry Mechanic. I had not emptied my recycle bin since then, until now. I had also scanned it with Trendmicro PCcillin 2006, which found two viruses, which had been quarantined, and then I deleted the quarantined files. Remember, this was all prior to me emptying my trash can.
