I recently use the Starforce Nightmare, and I believe I disable the wrong setting, and a blue screen had popped up saying it was doing a physical memory dump. After rebooting, my sound had stopped working, there isn't the windows mixer in the system tray, and the drivers show but wont load. When trying to play a sound file in WMP it says "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it might be in use by another program, or it might not be functioning properly."

I assume reformatting my solve this, but if someone has an alternative, that would be great. I have alot of important data that id rather keep.
