Unistalling GKnot codecs

[Quickbreak]

Can anyone explain to me how to unistall all the codecs that were installed by GordianKnot 1.5. I need to unistall because since installing gknot codecs i have been getting a high pitch endless beeping when lauching certain applications that run sound, one of these is max payne 2. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide me.

Go to control panel -> Add remove programs -> remove all installed codecs one by one. GKnot codec pack is actually a storage of all codecs' installers. So you will have all codecs (except divx3.11) un-installer entry in add/remove programs.

Well, that can't be correct for my problem because I unistalled all of the programs listed in add/remove programs that were originally installed by gordianknot, but during the gordianknot component installation selection menu, there is a component listed as "Audio Playback Filters". I have never unistalled anything related to this(and I did install it), because it was not available in add/remove programs. The rest of the components I was able to unistall through add/remove programs or their unistall feature. I believe it is the "Audio Playback Filters" that are causing me trouble. Thank you for the help anyways though Tuning. If anyone else is able to provide help or Tuning if you know how to remove the "Audio Playback Filters" I will be very grateful for the help.

Hi-

In Win XP, go Start->Settings->Control Panel->System->Hardware->Device Manager->Sound, Video And Game Controllers->Audio Codecs->Properties->highlight and Remove. I don't know if that's all of them, though.

Hello Quickbreak, and welcome to Doom9 forums.

I think the problem to you is not related to the part you are describing. Because the audio filters installed among GK is a Morgan stream switcher and a mp3 directshow decoder. First one is used to switch different audio in a video file and second is used to decode mp3 audio embedde in a video file.
Might be some problem to soundcard or broken drivers. Anyway you can try un-installing these filters.
Go you system folder in command prompt. (If you are using XP/2000 then go to system32 folder) then unregister these filters by typing these commands regsvr32 /u mmswitch.ax
regsvr32 /u mpgaudio.ax

each, one by one. A message box will popup giving unregistration of each filter.

After unistalling all the stuff you advised, unistalling and reinstalling my sound card and its drivers I still am getting the high pitch beeping.:thanks: for the help guys I will most likely just buy a new sound card.

By the way what happens on fresh installation of WinXP. Try, sometimes help.
