Sounds like an audio support question. Try http://support.microsoft.com

Hey, I just bought Windows Vista Ultimate on Monday and I am having the same problem. I even have the same stuff as you. I have spent the last 2 days trying to get my audio to work and still nothing!

Hi, I hope you've fixed you problem. I've seen a slew of these Vista problems concerning the Audio Service not wanting to start( re start )

I just got some excellent speakers which I'm dying to try out. The new drivers doesn't fix the problem, nor going to the securities settings.

If You've figured a way out of this quagmire, I'd appreciate a heads up.

this was a post I copied which mirrored exactly what happened to me three days ago.

anyway I find a bunch of nonsense and nothing which would fix the problem except reinstalling windows which I do NOT wish to do. I've four month of work and don't want to go through the whole reinstall the software.


thanks

Hi,

I had the same problem for 25 mins & found solution.

Just type in "NT AUTHORITY\LocalService" (not brackets) into this account and remove passwords, thats it. Go to Genral tab and click start.

This solved error 1079 for me .

Windows could not start the Windows Audio Service on Local computer.
Error 1079: the account specified for the service is diffrent from the account specified for other service running in the same process.

Hopes this helps any one else who gets this problem.

GGMan

PS: Windows Audio & Windows Audio Endpoint Builder need to be running. Also, if you look under the tab called Dependencies, you see what other services is required for sound to work.
