Best advice I can give you is to reinstall your audio driver which is located in device manager.





Where and what is that? well that is another question my friend lol.





You could also check the settings of your sound and audio devices in control panel.





Go to the audio tab of the sound and audio devices window.


Make sure you have an audio device for Play back, Recording and also MIDI play back.





Just click on the down arrows next to the option and select your audio device.





Hope that helped
