Hi baboon,

Welcome to PCHF.

Can you try this codec pack: Codec Installation Packages for IT Professionals

thank you mr madmonkey the sound is better but does sound a bit tinny.

Hi baboon,

Other codecs do tend to enhance sound quality, but there are disadvantages to downloading difference codec's, as you noticed, but some codec packs even contain some pritty nasty virus's and/or malware, so you do need to be careful.

However, there are things you can do in the applications themselves to enhance your sound. For example, if your using Windows Media Player:

Right click on the title and/or click on Tools, View, Enhancements and click on Show Enhancements.

At the bottom of the screen, normally starts with "Video Settings" but you can click on the < or > buttons to scroll between Video Settins, to your Graphic Equaliser to SRS WOW Effects.

Have a play with these settings. You can also download DSP plugin's but I haven't found a good free one for Windows Media Player.

You'll find similar features with a lot of players.
