missing or corrupt audio drivers

do a thorough scan you system for viruses if you do not do so regularly

do a surface scan of you hard drive

3 possible solutions (assuming widows os as you do not say)

1 insert you os installation disc - go to control panel \ system \ hardware \ device manager \ sound \ (audio hardwares) - select all audio drivers - right click, update

2 go to http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html download audio drivers specific to you model, install per their instructions

3 if you have install one of the many quirky av apps you have to go to their website to download & install their proprietary drivers

No absolutely not. This is happen when you delete your some system files on C: drive. It doesn't crash at once, But when you reboot. So don't ever delete your sys files. Now you can do is repair windows using the XP sp3 CD. Or replacing sys files using another OS.
Think this is helpful !

Try reinstalling the operating system, if fail, try running checkdisk on the HDD. If problem persists, replace the HDD.

Cheers!

Have you tried booting the system with the restore disk, well it should reformat the system before it installs a fresh copy of windows 98 so you should back-up data before proceeding and check the boot sequence in your bios, set the first boot device to CD/DVD.

I hope this helps:)

Many problems relating to camera connection issues relate to hardware other than the Nikon camera. There are numerous compatibility issues between USB Controllers, motherboards, main CPU chips and different versions of the Windows operation systems. Below are some helpful links. The Microsoft web site has information regarding USB Troubleshooting for Windows 98, Windows 98 SE and Windows ME. http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q263/2/18.ASP The Microsoft web site also has information regarding general compatibility between Windows and different USB controllers. Select "USB controllers" on the link and then find your USB controller on the list, if your controller is not listed as compatible or "logo" with your current operating system you may need to upgrade your OS, or work with alternate hardware. http://www.microsoft.com/hwdq/hcl/default.asp The Compaq web site has information regarding issues with their Deskpro 2000/4000 USB and Windows 2000. http://www.compaq.com/support/techpubs/customer_advisories/DG000117_CW01_0.html The Microsoft web site has information regarding issues between AMD Processors and Windows SE. http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q240/0/75.ASP One method for restoring USB functionality is to remove the currently installed USB Controller (from the Device Manager).

To accomplish this: Open the Device Manager (right click on "My Computer" and choose "Properties" Windows 98 and ME have a "Device Manager" Tab Windows 2000 and XP will have a button in the "Hardware" tab Click the "+ " sign next to item named "Universal Serial Bus controller" and highlight the "Unviversal Host controller" found beneth it. Once the item has been highlighted press "Delete" on the keyboard Refresh the Device Manager With Windows 2000 and XP choose "Scan for Hardware changes" from the "Action" menu. With Windows 98 or ME click "Refresh" If you were prompted for the install CD or to restart the computer there were definite driver changes made and any USB issues may be resolved.
