DirectPlay 0x80004005/Dpvsetup.exe w/Teamspeak

I am trying to get microphone input to work with Teamspeak RC2. When I
go to Control Panel, Sounds and Audio Devices Properties, test hardware,
I receive two error messages; "An error occurred during DirectPlay Voice
Setup. The error code is 0x80004005," then "Windows cannot execute
DpvSetup.exe, use Add/Remove Programs control panel to install." I
searched and found dpvsetup.exe in C:\Windows\system32, 82KB, 8/4/2004
8:00 AM, but attempting to run it had no detectable effect. I searched
the MS KB, and found
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;282882 for the
latter error message, but my Hardware Acceleration is already all the
way to the right. My sound chip is a "Realtek AC'97 Audio for VIA (R)
Audio Controller." Thank you for anyone who can help!

Have you tried updating your audio drivers?

You should be able to find them at
http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=2 (click Windows XP, then on
Audio - at this point you may need to know what motherboard is in your
machine, so you can find out what chipset is on board - so you'll know what
drivers you'll need to download).

Alternatively the drivers may be available on your motherboard manufacturers
website, or the company who actually built the machine, ie Dell.

Yes, they are the newest driver version, and I re-installed them too.

Well, I don't know about the problems people are experiencing in trying
to set up a microphone on their system, but I can tell you that unless
you are having problems playing sound, ignore that error message when
you perform "test hardware" under the voice tab of your audio devices.
My first mistake was in performing Dell's diagnostic scan 11 days shy of
my warranty expiring. It begot a whole host of tech "suggestions" over
the course of 3 days by phone and IM and resulted in all kinds of
additional problems, not to mention bleeding ears from trying to
understand foreign accents via phone over the course of 2 hours!
Fortunately, these problems were resolved before I tried reinstalling
my operating system (which probably wouldn't have corrected anything
anyway), and while I still have error messages, everything works as
before I began on my Hell adventure. My best advice, is check your
audio for downloads (see link below) that you may need. Good luck if
you need Dell's assistance.
