A quick Google search suggests you have a look at your SYSTEM.INI file.......

CAUSE

This problem can occur if the "drivers=mmsystem.dll" line is missing from
the [boot] section of the System.ini file.

RESOLUTION

To correct this problem, follow these steps:
1.Use any text editor (such as Notepad) to edit the System.ini file.
2.Add the following line to the [boot] section of the file: drivers=mmsystem.dll
3.Save and then close the System.ini file.
4.Restart your computer.

MORE INFORMATION

This problem can occur when the System.ini file has been replaced with the System.cb file.
