Hi!

I have an HP laptop that I purchased over a month ago and the other day it was playing music files just fine, however now it isn't. The sound devices are working properly and I updated the drivers and still no go. I can hear music online as well as little sounds from the mouse and etc. Yet whenever I try to play my music from my computer's hard drive it a FAIL. I can't play it in Windows Media Player, itunes, media center or anything. If anyone can offer some assistance please do!

Thanks in advance :)

As this recently happened, use the System Restore function and restore the PC back to a date when it did work. System Restore can be accessed from Start/Programs/Accessories/System Tools. System Restore will not affect (remove) any user data or e-mails.
