I'm having a problem getting sound to work with Miranda. My sound card is working fine and my mp3 player functions perfectly. Also, I keep having to delete the user "ne" from my list, it keeps getting added. And sometime Miranda crashes at close. Here is a list of my Miranda configuration. Could someone help me with this?

Have you configured your sounds correctly...? does the 'Preview' button work...?

Search the forums for the term 'UseSound'...

I'm having a problem getting sound to work with Miranda. My sound card is working fine and my mp3 player functions perfectly. Also, I keep having to delete the user "ne" from my list, it keeps getting added. And sometime Miranda crashes at close. Here is a list of my Miranda configuration. Could someone help me with this?

First, you need a database editor. I suggest you to use this one:
http://forums.miranda-im.org/showthread.php?t=5015

Then click on the item called 'Database Editor++' in the main menu.
Open the 'Settings' section and scroll down for a key called 'Skin' and select it.
Check if in the right panel you have a key called 'UseSound'.
If you don't have it, create it as a Byte value.
Then set it to 1.
Exit and restart Miranda and check sounds.

Also, I keep having to delete the user "ne" from my list, it keeps getting added.

Which protocol ?

I did what was suggested and it worked at first, I was able to preview sounds then it stopped working again. Also I seems to be having another issue. Whever Miranda is being used (a contact is typing a message, my system slow down considerably. My mouse even stops eorking until they are done typing.
