Output Devices Cannot Be Found

Sim Commander has quit working for me with all games. When launching I get the following message: "One or more output devices cannot be found (SimVibe Pedals SimVibe Shifter). I'm looking for help or insight on how to remedy this.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Bernard. I came to the conclusion last night that there had been a Windows update since my last use of SimVibe. However, I had gone through and reselected the sound card from the drop down without success. I shut the computer down over night and upon rebooting this morning, everything is working again. Thanks again for your time.

Every now and then, a Windows Update will update your sound card driver so substantially that it changes the unique identifier of the sound card. 

Sim Commander uses the unique identifier to refer to the sound card. SimVibe doesn't know what sound card to use when a breaking Windows Update like this happens.

You simply need to go into the SimVibe settings and choose your preferred sound card from the dropdown list.
