encountered an unknown error. more info gives Error# C00D11CD

 

http://makeashorterlink.com/?B2C712AD6 says that

http://www.nwlink.com/~zachd/pss/pss.html is a good place to start.
There are some other good links. Read through the thread. It's long,
but it looks like there are some good answers.

(Blink) ooohhh, kay....

sunny? Assuming you're runing Windows 9x/ME.....

I'd suggest starting off with going into SafeMode, uninstall the sound
board, then reboot into normal mode and re-install.

If that don't wanna work, it might be Media Player's fault. Just be
careful of MP's updates. After 6.4 your updates force you to accept MS
Digital Rights Management (DRM), as well as grant additional "rights" to
your computer to MS.

not turned them on in BIOS.or..or..or.....
Without clear info second guessing is a waste of everyones time.
