  I have Windows XP Media Center Edition Service Pack 3. I lost the sound when you try to install Windows Media Player 11. Under the configuration/sounds and devices Panel there is now no device not listed for the Volume, the speaker settings. On the tab for playback Audio, high fidelity, all the options are greyed out - cannot select or change anything. I did the troubleshooting steps and nothing helped. All the devices on the Hardware tab have been checked and they are supposedly correctly, even if I do not hear a thing. I've also updated the Realtek audio drivers and nothing has changed.
