SYMPTOMS
When you try to play a sound (.wav) file, you may receive the following error message:

Sound Recorder cannot record or play back because a sound device is not installed. To install a sound device, click 'Add New Hardware' in Control Panel.

CAUSE
This problem can occur if the "drivers=MMSYSTEM.DLL" entry is missing from the [boot] section of the System.ini file.

RESOLUTION
Add the following line to the [boot] section of the System.ini file: drivers=MMSYSTEM.DLL

If the line is present but has a semicolon
