 I own a pc with a P4M800CE-8237 MB. This is an MSI mb with VIA chips.
Phoenix bios LTD 6.00 PG 10/1
2.93 mhz clk
Win XP SP2 OS
1024 mb ram
 
onboard AC'97 Sound Codec
chip: Realtek ALC655 "compliant with AC'97 ver. 2.3 spec."
 
Sound plays when CD or DVD installed.  An email with a video clip plays video without the sound.
Presently using driver WDM_A397.exe,
QUESTION: is this driver a compatible upgrade for the manuals recommended wdm_a352.exe?
 
When I dbl-clk ControlPanels "Sound and Audio Devices" the Volume tab indicates "No Audio Device" and the Audio Tab reads "modem #0 Line Playback".
This all looks wrong to me but CD's PLAY and the Device Manager for shows the Realtek AC'97 driver present.
 
I'm stumped, I've reload WMP, downloaded recommended Codecs and still the CD's Play but video clips do not !
 
Any ideas?

I've found that some files won't play in Windows Media Player, but they play OK in an alternative player, such as Real Player.

What format are the files you are having troubles with? Also, are the files supposed to have sound? (Sometimes videos are shared around that have no sound.)
