Audio compression not installed

I get this error message when trying to play Mech warrior 4. Audio compression not installed. No one came with an answer on how to solve this problem. Where should I start my search?

Hello Wilvias,

Thank you for your message.  Did you install the 3rd party Codecs?  This seems to be caused by a damaged Codec.  Search the Web for a full Codec compatible with your audio, video, and the game needs.
Please let us know if it did or did not solve your problem.
See you soon

  • Windows 7 RTM / Realtek HD Audio drivers not installed correctly.

    I have a macbook pro, and I was told that I need to install the latest Realtek HD audio drivers, as the drivers included on the OSX cd are not good.

    I downloaded both the executable installer for the drivers and the zip file, but regardless of how I approach it, after installation and reboot, I find myself with a little red cross on my audio down to the right icon, no noise, and after a quick diagnosis, I said that there is a problem with the Realtek driver.

    Driver audio windows HD, which he comes back if I ask windows to "solve" the problem does not give me any sound on my speakers, no use of a microphone and is just horrible.

    Why do I get the difficulties to get the drivers to work?

    Hello WhoFly,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers Site.

    You can check with the vendor for the AC 97 Audio Codecs for installation instructions or read readme file for installing the audio driver. You can also provide the model number of the audio chip on your motherboard to the vendor for more information on audio driver installation instructions.

    I hope this information is useful.

    Thank you, Mary

It was working properly before HDTV using the HDMI port, but now is not. HDTV works

    I do not know what sparked the question, but I checked for a driver when studying the sound card details and has not seen a driver for audio support HDMI.

  • Its icon does not appear in the notification area - no audio device is installed

    NO INSTALLED AUDIO DEVICE & NO SOUND, VIDEO & GAME CONTROLLER NOT TAB ON DEVICE MANAGER

    I had some problems with the sound on my laptop... sometimes the volume icon will suddenly disappear from the notification area and I can not add it even because it is grayed off the coast, unless I restarted my laptop... and after an automatic Windows Update I suddenly got errors on my sound whenever I play a game and try to mute it. After that, the volume in the notification area icon got a red X and it had the "NO AUDIO DEVICE IS INSTALLED" message!

    I tried everything I found on the net without success. I can't even enable or disable my audio driver because I have NOT any how 'audio, video controller & game' tab on my DEVICE MANAGER! I can't uninstall & re-install my drivers either because it would not uninstall first, even in safe mode. Reinstall the driver will give me an error message saying "No. MEDIA FOUND to this DEVICE DRIVER" !

    I also tried to reformat my laptop and goes back to factory settings, restore my system to a point where I wasn't having problems still, it reboot several times, always check the Device Manager if somehow the tab for its controller will magically appear and try several times to reinstall my driver... This gave me No. SOLUTION !

    I don't know what to do more and forums on other sites do no help either. I don't want to dirty my registry for fear of totally play my laptop.

    HOW can I SOLVE THIS PROBLEM? I just got windows update and not only I have problems with the audio on my laptop but I can't play games on facebook either!

    Hi Annetalla,

    You can uninstall the current sound driver from Device Manager and restart the computer to load the generic driver and check if it makes a difference.

    1. click on Start.

    2. type devmgmt. msc in the search box start and press to enter.

    3. right click on the speaker and select Uninstall.

    4 restart the computer, and vista will load the generic drivers.

    If an audio device on board, you will see the option in the BIOS. To do this, you need to read the manual that came with your computer or contact the manufacturer for this.
