I remember seeing this but my issues are not the same. Sound just stops
and as I mentioned unloading everything and letting the computer sit
worked today. This makes no sense to me because what could possibly be
happening to return sound?

I'd like to share some info, which I have posted before, but is worth
repeating, with regards to losing sound.
Firstly, with regards to the ding sound which is generated by the
windows operating system.
I some times lose sound after hearing the ding sound.
This happens in explorer, Firefox, internet explorer, wordpad, notepad.
My solution:
I unplug the usb connection for my headset, and WE7.2 starts speaking
via my external speakers. I then replug my usb headset and everything
is back to normal.
In this case, windows lost sound to my headset, which is a known bug
to all windows operating systems.
Now, another known bug for all windows operating systems is that
keyboard stops functioning.
I use a wireless keyboard, and when I lose sound, I hit windows key on
my usb keyboard and sometimes my sound is back.
In this case, my wireless keyboard stopped functioning.
Now, sometimes the usb keyboard is not responding either.
In this case, I unplug the usb keyboard and wait for a ding sound, and
then I replug the usb keyboard, and this sometimes does the trick, and
keyboard is working again.
However, sometimes the lost of sound is caused by a WE7.2 crash.
In this case, I use a batch file to unload all three gwmicro programs,
and restart WE7.2, and I am back to normal.
However, sometimes after restarting WE7.2 after closing it using the
batch file, nothing works on the keyboard, except control alt delete,
and nothing in that menu works except shutdown, which is the icon on
the lower right.
Good luck to all.
Aloha,
Manny
