(solved)Audio error: the endpoint is a duplicate

<< < (6/12) > >>

Shane:
Ok so looks like the two files are AudioEndpointBuilder.dll and the other is Audiosrv.dll.

Do you have 8 or 8.1 installed?

Shane

Hi
it's 8.1  :wink:

Shane:
Well looks like I forgot I deleted Windows 8 in vmware because I was doing some upgrades. So I removed Windows 8 off my own computer in Dec and put Windows 7 back on. After a year of using 8 I couldnt stand it any more lol

So I am installing 8.1 fresh in vmware now as we speak, I will then get all updates done and then get a copy of those two files for you. Just to make sure you have all current updates instalkled correct? If so then the files I get should be the proper versions that you will need.

Shane:
Almost there lol.

I honestly have only had maybe 2 customers bring me Windows 8 machines to reinstall in the last year. Every new machine I get from customers that have Windows 8 on it they ask me to remove it and put 7 on for them.

So I havent done a fresh install of 8 for a while. Now I have a Windows 8.1 disk, which means I dont have to do the 8.0 to 8.1 update which is huge and has problems. So even when starting with 8.1 direct, the Windows updates first run was over 900 MB in size (And took 2.5 hours to install) and now the 2nd run at Windows updates is over 1 GB in size!!

So far over 2 GB in updates for a fresh install of 8.1 (This would be even bigger if I started with 8.0)

No wonder so many people hate the idea of reinstalling 8 lol

Soon as the 2nd run at the updates is done I will run a 3rd check on Windows updates, you keep doing the updates till it comes back that there isnt any. Wonder how big the 3rd run will turn out. But once it is all done I will have the two files for you.

Shane:
Just finished the 2nd bath of updates. So now running the 3rd and guess what!?

61 updates at 1.4 GB in size. After the 70+ updates I have already done at 2 GB+.

So for 3 runs we have a grand total of 3.4GB+ just for windows updates alone after a fresh install of 8.1 direct. (The entire 8.1 disk is 3.63GB)

My god Microsoft, what the crap have you done????
