If you look at the path given, and find that the item in question resides in the program files folder, then uncheck it. If you find anything relating to windows audio, leave it checked as this could affect the audio for the system. If you wish, we can take this off-list, and maybe we can hookup by phone, and I'll walk thru it with you.
