I don't say that this is the problem, i think somehow the computer is trying to access one of the removable disks that is not inserted or not ready ( CD without a CD inside, card reader without a memory card in it, etc.. ) If you want to fix your sound driver you could get on the hardware manager and uninstall all the uninstallable sound drivers then scan again to let the computer detect the hardware and try to install them again. Could you list more cases that generate that same error, it could help us determine better what's the problem.
