I can honestly say I have taken good care of my computer for 4 years, and never had any problems I couldnt overcome. But recently there is one problem that has left me scratching my head.
this is the scenario, I am sitting there listening to music via mediamonkey, watching videos on youtube, then all of a sudden, all sound stops, I check the volume, eveything is fine, then I check the player and see that the song has been paused, I press play nothing happens it is still paused and it refuses to play anything,
I open youtube and try to play a video and looks like that has been paused too and try to play the video and same thing happens, I try itunes, wm player, and they all refuse to play anything, so i end up logging off and resarting, this fixes the problem but only temperarilly. The same problem returns only 45 minutes later, this has been hapenning for a week now and I am getting tired of it, please help me diagnose my issue.

Use a different antivirus. Your AV is not detecting the malicious file if there does exist one.
Also as this is not a driver problem and since your AV is not detecting a virus, your windows files may have gone corrupt. Do try to reinstall the sound driver and if that doesnt help, reinstall windows.

go to webroot.com and download a free trial of spysweeper, whenever i have a problem that avg doesnt catch i go to webroot, always works for me, they offer a 15 day trial free and its cheap to renew a license
