I figured out the problem
I had to change the compatibility option to Windows 2000
Right click on War3 Icon and select the compatibility tab and click the box for
"run program for compatibility for"
and select windows 2000
It solved my problem

Thanks for posting your solution, first time I've seen that work for someone.
For anyone else with the same problem:
This particular error occurs when you try to use the EAX sound provider in Warcraft III's options but your sound card doesn't support it. Usually it affects people using their motherboard's onboard sound, mostly people with brand-name PCs (Dell, Compaq, etc.). The two usual solutions are to update your sound card drivers or download this registry file and run it:
http://ftp.blizzard.com/pub/war3/other/soundmax.reg
The file will change your game settings so you are using the Miles Emulated 3D sound provider.
