dont know what when wrong but I cannot access my audio devices control panel. Control Panel...Hardware and Sound..Manage Audio Devices. Nothing happens. Only a brief flicker. I also cannot change system sounds. Any idea what could be the problem? or at least how to go about debugging it.

Anything I am missing?

Thanks.

I uninstalled Logitech program and Sound in Control Panel worked. I use my Logitech QuickCam, so I will check with Logitech before I reinstall the program.
