    Did you try deactivating the headphones?
    If you have a windows DVD you could try a repair install; Repair Install this will leave all your personal stuff intact.

    Yes, a VERY good point. I think that may be my only other option at this point.
    I'll try it and report the result. Thanks.

    Well I did REPAIR INSTALL with my VALID Win7 64 bit cd andi t did NOT resolve
    the issue. The problem remains the same.

    And now it has CREATED an issue because now the system refuses to accept my
    valid product id code online to re-active Windows, which DOES PLEASE me
    at all. It would be a simple telephone call fix if in was in the USA, but I'm
    not, I'm currently located in the Philippine Islands.


    So now how do I fix my registation problem, after following your suggested
    repair install, which did not solve my original issue.

    Sorry about this, I could not know you were away from home. I have asked for help to get this problem fixed.
    I do believe that no matter where you are, you select the country that you are in and you should be given the option of two telephone numbers one of them free to activate Windows

    Do I understand right that music from your own files play correctly and only streaming media gets confused?
    Look into your Audio card's control panel and see if there is a setting to disable speakers if head phones are plugged in. There may also be some setting to map the connectors differently too, for example, if you're using stereo or 5-1 speakers.

    As for the Windows key problem, it should give some other links to help you activate. Have you recently done another reinstall or repair? Changing hardware often triggers Win7's activation to be invalid too.

    Also have a look at How to Uninstall the Product Key Number and Deactivate Windows 7 and Vista
    Reading all the replies, there are more tips in them. I'm thinking if you can deactivate your current install and reinstall your key, it may "take".

    Well now I have a REAL problem.

    I cannot find a way to get my Windows activated.

    First let eme state that I am HANDICAPPED, having sufferd stroke about
    10 years ago.

    Entering the product ket AGAIN, just results in n error,

    So.. I make a phone call to the Microsoft service center number given for the
    Philippnes, and upon reaching it get to the automated entry system.
    This method is almost IMPOSSIBLE for a handicapped person with only
    ONE working hand to operate. Its impossible to hold the cell phone AND
    type entries at the same time. (YOU try it and see how far YOU get).

    Trying to get a BODY to talk to os near IMPOSSIBLE, and if you d
    either the cant hear me, or I cant hear them.

    So Im SCREWED!

    And if there is some scheme to help the HANDICAPPED get this porcess
    accomplished, I cant find it!

    So.... HELP,,,, where in the world do you go from here now?

    I'm sorry for your situation eatc7402. If the cell phone has a speaker option you can use that?

    Also try re-entering the key very slowly, I have made mistakes typing before, especially with 30 numbers.

    I would like to re-open any possible discussion on this thread.
    I STILL have the very same problem and I am more convinced
    than ever that this is a REGISTRY setting problem, but I have no idea where to start searching or for what. But I can add this.. haveing just installed Real Player for
    the first time ever on this system it shows the exact same symptoms as WinAmp
    an WMedia Player have shown for year.

    Did you get your activation done OK?

    I am assuming by streaming you mean music/video from the web and from within a browser. Check in the browser's tools/controls for add ons for the media players and see they are enabled.

    No. I am referring ONLY to streaming AUDIO (real time public safety radio traffic).
    And not through a browser at all, but using a direct url into the audio players.
