Hi, Yes the start menu is the same as in Win7. The way I do this is as follows: 1. Press start menu. 2. type in cmd and press shift+apps. 3. Press down arrow twice to run as administrator. 4. Press alt+Y to accept UAC. 5. Type in net start audiosrv. Hope this helps. Andrew. -----Original Message----- From: blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Barry Toner Sent: 11 October 2010 22:50 To: 'Blind sysadmins list' Subject: Re: [Blind-sysadmins] Sound card drivers not reloading Hi, Is the Start menu in 2K8 R2 Vista/7 style? I've loaded up a few ISO's in VM, but I can't get audio out of the box of any of them. I want to test in VM first before writing an unattend and deploying it to a workstation as a server. Is the Audio Service disabled by default as it's a Server? Cheers, Barry.

Hi,
Net start audiosrv. You need to do this in an elevated command prompt under Windows Server 2008 R2.
Andrew.

Could it be as simple as: Net start "windows audio" Or would I have to do something else after that? Thanks Frank

Hi,
I think the issue here is that Windows sets the audio service to disabled, and when the drivers are getting installed it is starting the service. Try enabling the Windows Audio service if it isn't already.
Thanks. Andrew.

Hi all, I have an interesting problem that I have not run across before. I am trying to get audio (sound) output from our Dell PE 840 running Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise. I have tried a myriad of USB sound cards all with the same result. If I plug in a sound card that I have never used before into the Dell it will start working and I can get Narrator to work fine. Now if I reboot the computer and try that same USB sound card it won't work again and never will. This is the same results as with all sound cards I have tried. I have heard something about Win 2k8 not allow the loading of non signed drivers at boot up. Is this true and how can it be fixed? If not does anyone have any suggestions as to what to do to make this work? I am really pulling my hair out on this one. Tia Frank
