Issue with playback

Post by autumnRose » Tue May 18, 2010 8:11 pm

I need some help please:
I have Windows seven and I am using the Audacity Beta.
and every time I try to play anything or record with an exisiting track I get:
Error while opening sound device. Please check the output device settings and the project sample rate

I tried changing the output device setings and that didn't work.
I don't know where the project sample rate is-

does anyone have any suggestions on how to solve this problem?

In that case, let's keep it in the Audacity 1.3.x part of the forum ;)
