Try reinstalling your sound card, or restarting your computer.

if you are also running yahoo messenger you can. You can set it in your preference. \n1. Go to Messenger->Preferences->Alerts&Sounds\n2. In the 'Alert me when' box on right side click on 'I recieve a message in Yahoo! Mail'\n3. On the bottom in 'Alert me when' check on Playing a sound\n\nThere might be a way if u have Yahoo toolbar also..But since I dont use that I can't help you with that

It is not your computer, Yahoo put out a non-functional beta version of messenger for some reason. Uninstall it. Get version 7.0 or older (which actually works) from here\nhttp://www.oldapps.com/yahoo_messenger.htm\nAlso, make sure you have the latest version of Java, which is needed for some Yahoo things to work. Get that here\nhttp://www.java.com/en/download/windows_xpi.jsp

Uninstall your Java and reboot your computer. Start Messenger and/or games tot check if working.\nDownload new Java from (link below) and do clean install. Everything should keep working properly.

u need to contact the PC manufacturer for this, most probably your PC needs audio drivers, which may be missing from it. Just download it from the manufacturer's website, install them, restart the PC and enjoy the music.

This problem is strange. I would suggest, try reinstalling Yahoo Messenger. Try the latest version.\n\nI hope your PC is not acting weird otherwise. I would like to help you out more. Do IM me in case reinstalling does not solve your problem.\n\n\nCheers,\nManish

Just remove program and install messenger again. Also check the internet connection.\n\nIn rare case you might have had a special preference of internet connection that does not let Yahoo Messenger program access Internt.

The probable cause could be you have a firewall client installed in your computer. Try disabling it before connecting to Yahoo messenger

There was an outage with one of the servers within Yahoo! that supports the Music site and player, resulting in the problem you saw. This has since been resolved.

Check to see what version you have by going to help then about. If it is 7.5 it might not work with your computer (it is a very buggy version) if you do have 7.5 uninstall it and then go to \nhttp://www.oldapps.com/yahoo_messenger.htm and get version 7.0
