Very Strange Error Message....

"The Ordinal 11 could not be located in the dynamic link library DSOUND.dll"

I cannot play any games...nor open any media file because this error message will come up.

I have tried restoring my system back a few days but it didn't work. I used Norton to do a system check but nothing came up. I did a virus scan and spyware scan and nothing.

I have XP Pro (Service Pack 2) with P4 HyperThreading, 2048MB DDR RAM, 256MB Graphics Card, 120GB Western Digital.

I recommend an

SFC.EXE /SCANNOW
