Status: offline 		Only comment on the DxDiag is that I don't recognize your sound card, can you provide any more info on that "AudioPhile USB"? Also some of the audio drivers are from 2008, any chance of an update on those?

Status: offline 		looks as though it could be .net code

http://forums.aspfree.com/net-development-11/common-causes-of-object-reference-not-set-to-an-instance-45799.html

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/810098

from microsoft :

To resolve this problem, register the Adodb.dll file in the global assembly cache (GAC). On a computer where only the .NET Framework is installed, the file Gacutil.exe does not exist.. Either obtain the gacutil file by installing Microsoft .NET Framework SDK, or create a Visual Studio.NET setup project that uses the installer to install the correct components.

To register Adodb.dll in the GAC, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start and then click Run.
  2. In the Run dialog box, type the following command, and then click OK:

    C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\gacutil /i C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\Primary Interop Assemblies\adodb.dll
