Reinstall Audio Service

Hi everyone,
I have problem with audio service in Vista Ultimate. When i run PC on
startup i have information that audio service don't start. When I open
service console and try restart audio service a got error message that audio
service can't start. Any idea how reinstall this service. A have got AC'97
audio card on mainbord and install the newest drivers from manufactured.
Thanks for your answers

Best Regards,
Jakub Kaminski

I would suggest uninstalling the current drivers or a rollback to previous
working one.
If that don't work, uninstall the device and the drivers reboot and let it
detect again and use the build in drivers for now.

No correct, you have to clean the driver cache from the downloaded drivers
else it still uses those "Latest date" is newest.

Look for the place you have unpacked the drivers and look in the INF folder
for the corresponding inf file, you have to remove those both before it
will detect the older one's again.

Didn't roll back this driver from device manager not work?

Can you use System Restore and restore to a point just before you installed
the manufacturer's driver? Make sure you install a Vista compatible driver.
SR should have created a point at the time you did the installation.

After following these directions from Ko and Colin, when you do install the
driver preferrably downloaded from your card maker's site, try using the
Browse button and type in the file path where you have those currrent sound
driver files downloaded--see if that will help.

Also don't forget to check the usual suspects as well--right click the sound
icon if it's in your notification area or go to Sounds and make sure the
speaker and line in are all working.

Make sure also the volume is up in the volume mixer (right clicking the
sound icon in the notification area.

I have some problems with the same Audio drivers.
If I use the Vista drivers downloaded from the manufacturs website, and the
sound works great but I get a error with explorer and "Explorer is
restarting everytime I try to access the Control Panel. If I uninstall the
audio drivers, the Control panel works great, but no sound.

Any suggestions to this problem?

Hi,
A roll back drivers and delete unpacked driver files. I also check from
which drivers this card use and is the old drivers (i check version
drivers). It still don't help. In properties a have information that device
work properly. It's very strange problem :-)

Through many trials and snares, I have solved this enigma. It is a d---
shame that MS provides not one artical on how to fix this privilege
problem.

I upgraded to Vista Ent and could not get Windows Audio to start. I
kept getting a message stating Error 1297: A privilege that the service
requires to function properly does not exist in the service ..... yada
yada yada.

After some serious researching, I figured it out.

If you are having issues with Audio Service
SEARCH YOU REGISTRY, RUN REGEDIT AND FIND THIS KEY:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Services\A udiosrv

YOU WILL FIND THAT AUDIOSRV REQUIRES THE FOLLOWING PRIVILEGES:
SeChangeNotifyPrivilege
SeImpersonatePrivilege
SeIncreaseWorkingSetPrivilege

OPEN LOCAL SECURITY POLICY AND LOCATE THE FOLLWING POLICIES:
Bypass traverse checking
Impersonate a client after authentication
Increase a process working set

Add the Local Service account to each policy and then reboot.

In short, for any service, if you get the privilege error, search the
registry and find out what rights are required, find them in the local
security policy and add the account used by that service.

Hope this helps.
