Yeah, something like . . .
"reinstall your soundcard drivers" would be quite apt (mmsystem007)
or, "oi dummy! you haven't got a soundcard"
(mmsystem002)
or, reinstall Windows Multimedia Devices (Media Control - Wave Audio Device)
mmsystem004 (device already in use):
Please switch to DirectSound Output
(or, get a soundcard which supports playback of multiple audio streams)
mmsytem032 would be cool if it could actually detect which system codec is missing, eg. no mp3/divx/wma/etc codec found.
DirectSound error message (could not create direct sound object):
Reinstall latest soundcard drivers and upgrade
DirectX
