DirectSoundCaptureCreate failed. HR = DSERR_NODRIVER while using Ventrillo

I try to use Ventrillo, and I have a headset-microphone combo that works well on and off for a few years now.

It's a logitech, but I don't know the model number - or where to look to find - and I can't find it online, so I think it might not be in circulation more. In any case, it's a simple thing - everything is that it's two catches, one for a microphone to speakers.

The issue I'm having is that I hear very well, but I can't talk - I'm sure the microphone works, but the error message I get when I connect to a ventrillo server is:

Cannot enable DirectSound for the selected device.
DirectSoundCaptureCreate failed. HR = DSERR_NODRIVER. No sound driver is available for use

Just I updated my Direct X, so I think it should be OK. Is there a specific audio driver I should be looking?

The computer I use is the one that I built with the help of a few friends, but I'm sure that everything is properly connected - I just have to look around to try to dig up of sheet material if they are needed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Control Panel > sound > recording tab
 
Click once on the icon of the microphone.
 
Make sure that the sound card on the computer is the default device
 
Then click on PROPERTIES > levels tab, adjust the level...
 
Try it out now...

    Hello Ric Buckmiller,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

    What specific Windows Vista virus protection software are you talking about?  Windows Vista will be usually comes with Windows Defender.  Windows Defender is software that helps protect your computer against the pop-ups, slow performance and threats caused by the software security spyware and other unwanted software to detect and remove spyware on your computer. Windows Defender Protection features in real time, a monitoring system that recommends actions against spyware when it's detected, minimizes interruptions, and helps you to remain productive.  Yes you can use it with antivirus software.

    How to uninstall any other antivirus or firewall program?

    Before installing Windows Live OneCare, please make sure that you uninstall completely any existing antivirus or firewall program that may be on your computer.

    This step is very important, no matter what protection software you use, because installing one antivirus or firewall program over another on the same computer could potentially lock up the computer.

    Note: If you do want to keep the ability to reinstall your old antivirus or a firewall program in the future, make sure you have the original product CD (or a backup program disk) before you begin uninstalling.

    I have to continually have internet service while using the creative cloud? I'm moving to Swaziland in Africa Southern and ill probably have intermittent service.  I hope that I could download programs with that I am interested in the use, such as items, as well as the images that I am working on my computer (an IMac).

    Creative cloud requires internet connections periodically to confirm that your subscription is still in good standing.  All Cloud applications are installed on your computer and you can keep all your work there by default as well.  The cloud provides online storage, but chances are that you have enough on your machine for your needs against what provides the cloud.

  • Expection while using the string (compare-ignore-case, uppercase) function

    Hi all

    I am using soa suite 11.1.1.6

    JDeveloper 11.1.1.6

    I tried to use the string functions (only 2 xp20:upper - box (), oraext:compare-ignore-case()) with an xpath expression. But it is throwing an error saying that the xpath expression is invalid. I used the same xpath expression in an assign activity that works very well. The string functions are works well when it is used with constants. But the case failed when they are used together this way

    It may be wise to cast to a string also. Sometimes you get the signatures of the rear instead of content element if you specify.

  • Adobe Muse CC fails to download/install use dektop Creative Suite App

    Hello

    Adobe Muse CC fails to download/install use dektop Creative Suite App or via the web site.

    For info.

    (1) it's Creative Suite team

    (2) other Apps (photoshop, illustrator, inDesign) download / install OK

    (3) win7 PC platform - machine rebooted etc.

    Advice please

    Thank you

    Pete

    For the people who sent me the same problem... THE Muse CC will not download/install

    In my case it was because of a legacy version of Adobe Air (installed through CS6) which would be update or delete using the updated standard Adobe, or using the feature of panel\programs & features\uninstall microsoft\control

    To resolve this problem, you need the tool of register of Mircrosoft Fixit from here:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall/en-us

    Run the tool of naming 'Adobe Air' as the program that could not be uninstalled... it took awhile, but finally finished uninstalling.

    Then I could just install Adobe Air from the MuseCC & using standard abobe installers.

    Hope this helps

    was soon Pete
