Hi,
I wonder if anyone could offer any suggestions as to the following:
When I run a voice test in Sound and Multimedia I get the following error:
An error occurred during Direct Play Voice Setup.
Error code Ox805017 then when I click on okay it says:
Windows Cannot Exectue Dpv Setup.exe, use Add/Remove Programs Panel to
Install.
I have checked the Add/Remove Panel and there is nothing there about Dpv
Voice Setup.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Liz
