I posted this in General Discussion. I'll try reposting it here and see what I get.

I've had 2012 on a Windows 7, ASUS laptop for close to a year now (the laptop is almost the same age), and I just recently started making a lead sheet on it after not having worked with it in well over a month, possibly two. Now, for some reason, the piano sound that supposedly goes along with it is not making any sound at all. I don't think it's a problem with my headphones, as in the Windows volume control thingy it's showing that no sound is being produced by the computer one way or another. Basically, I have no idea what my lead sheet is sounding like. I'm not sure I've ever had this problem before. I've tried SmartMusic SoftSynth (nope), Garritan (nope, never really worked much on here), ARIA player (stopped responding and forced me to close Finale, could never understand that blasted player anyway). I'm out of ideas... any idea what my problem might be?
Thanks and hope to hear from you soon.
