Solved: Bad DirectSound Driver Error Code: 88780078
January 14th, 2008 Aizat World News
I have dual boot my laptop with Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon and Windows XP. Last weekend I have redesign my ubuntu appearance to be more like Mac OSX using Mac4Lin(melayubuntu have more about Mac4Lin). Mac4Lin is a open source software to dress up your linux to look similarly like Mac OS. Having fun with my Ubuntu and I forget to use Windows XP. Today, I log in to my Windows XP and what happened? When I open Winamp give me such error. Bad DirectSound driver. Please install proper drivers or select another device in configuration. Error code: 88780078.
I have just installed Call of Duty 4: Moden Warfare but cannot play the games because of this error. When I opened up ny Sound and Audio Devices Properties in Control Panel show that no audio device. I try googling around the error code trying a few solutions and finally I have find the solution.
What I do?
Click Start -> Run… type : services.msc
Click OK. A services (local) window will appear. Scroll down to Windows Audio and double click on it.
A Windows Audio Properties (Local Computer) will appear. Change the startup type on the drop down list to Automatic
Click Apply. And then click Start to make the Service status change to Started. This solution work for me like a charm. I can play mp3 right away. Hope this solution will help you too.

ubuntu ni adalah operating system mcm Windows jugak.boleh dapat free kalu shipping.Aku dah dapat dulu banyak CD ubuntu dihantar kat umah.boleh tengok kat website ubuntu.Free jer.
Yang bestnya boleh run guna CD jer OS tu.

Ubuntu nie operating system macam windows xp and vista. yang beza nya ubuntu ni open source and free untuk kegunaan semua.. software die pon free.. tapi memang ramai tak tau lagi.. aku pon saje cuba gune ubuntu.. nak feel lain skit.
dell pon support ubuntu.. kalau nak best dual boot je. sebab kite masih perlukan windows. hehe
hehe iyerlah melayubuntu.. xp merajuk sebab aku dah jarang guna xp. aku suke gune ubuntu bile online sebab ubuntu laju bile surf
