Winamp Error 88780078. Bad DirectSound Driver. Makes any sense to ya?

It also says, Plz install proper drivers or select another driver in configuration.

That totally went bouncer!.

I checked everything under Device Manager, and its fine.

And.. Real Player isn't working either. When I try to open volume control it says, There are no mixer devices avaialable.

That happened earlier too, but once I restarted it was back to normalcy.
Update : I get an Error Code 14 - 8007007E , Thats the error displayed when I try to play music on Windows Media Player. Why is everything so messed up ?

Hi

What is your Windows OS?

Go to: Windows Control Panel > Sound > Playback tab
Make sure your soundcard is selected as the default playback device.
e.g. I've got mine set to "Speakers: Creative SB X-Fi"

If it's an onboard soundchip then you'll probably see something like "Speakers: High Definition Audio Device".

In Winamp, go to: Prefs (Ctrl+P) > Plug-ins > Output > DirectSound Output > Configure
and make sure the same device is set as the Output Device via the Device drop-down menu.

If the problem persists, please include a DirectX Diagnostics log
Go to: Start > Run
Type: dxdiag
Hit OK/Enter
Wait for it to load
Click the 'Save all information' button
