What is a virtual audio device? (Please read question before answering!!)?

I installed a program called PlayOn a while ago, and after the installation, my speaker icon changed from displaying the message “No audio output device installed” to the regular speaker icon. When I hover over the icon, it shows “PlayOn Virtual Audio Device.” However, I still don’t have any sound. What exactly is a virtual audio device, and if it indicates that I have sound, why isn’t the sound working? Thank you for your answers. I am using Windows Vista Home Basic 32-bit SP2.

I think a VAD (Virtual Audio Device) is a driver that allows a piece of audio software or firmware to initiate. What I’d do is try uninstalling whatever you installed that cause your problem because clearly, this sounds like a problem that has to do with different drivers conflicting with each other. If uninstalling doesn’t work, try doing a System Restore to before you installed the program. Another thing you can do is try updating the drivers for your VADs.

convinced. it truly is spoke of as Divine Laziness, and Ignorant layout. Ignorant layout comes into it at the same time as human beings answer a thoroughly distinct question to what became requested, or favor to rant instead of answering. a magnificent celebration I once had turned right into a decrease’n’paste that crammed the web page, yet did not answer the question in any respect. i have also had some those who thoroughly ignore with reference to the question itself, and merely say stuff like ‘I agree’. ok, you compromise. honest adequate, now could you want to inform me your answer at any time? Divine Laziness is the different large non secular rationalization for no longer examining. It takes the range of a question format (i am going to scouse borrow your celebration): Q: Why do not Xs ever look to tolerate Ys? QD: i do not in my opinion imagine there is many Xs who dislike Ys, it truly is only a small minority who have a tendency to be truly rude and disgusting of their attitudes. A case of the noisiest few, that you ought to communicate. what’s your opinion in this? A: we are no longer ALL like that!!! supply up being so judgemental!! ummmm…..examine IT next TIME!!!! lol. ((((hugs))))
