| | Windows Audio won't start....MMCSS service Upgraded a client's Toshiba Vista Ultimate to SP1. Now the audio won't work. The Windows Audio Sevice is set to "Automatic" but when I try to start it, I get this error: Error 1075: The dependency service is not started or is marked for deletion. All dependent services are running. And if I check the Event viewer, I also see: Event 7003. The Windows Audio Service depends the following service: MMCSS. This service might not be installed. I don't know that service and don't see it listed in the MMC. I also see this problem in Google from some others. Is it a common problem? Right now client has no sound...just a red X over the volume icon down in the sys tray. |

| | Re: Windows Audio won't start....MMCSS service My first thought would be to remove the sound card and allow it to reinstall the driver, that should reset things. -- A Professional Amateur...If anyone knew it all, none of would be here!

I have a machine that required a BIOS update for the onboard sound to work properly. -- A Professional Amateur...If anyone knew it all, none of would be here!
