When ever I update windows, and there is a windows media update, I lose my
audio. Usually after I restart my computer, the audio begins to play again.
This time it hasn't. I can't get it to play in windows media 9, or in my
interactual dvd.
And I don't remember what it was that I updated for windows media. Should I
uninstall windows 9, and start over? I believe I have already tried that
once, but it didn't help.

Reboot to Safe Mode
Open Device Manager
Remove ALL Sound &Multimedia devices
Remove ALL error-flagged devices
Remove ALL entries in the 'Other Devices' branch - if present
Reboot to Normal Mode - Windows will reinstall the required drivers,
hopefully curing your problem.
