Sound Problems

Mutie

First time out of the vault
Hey,

Specs:
Athlon XP 1600, GeForce4, Soundblaster Live, XP PRO, game is patched to 1.27

I have recently installed Fallout tactics to Xp, the game is running very smoothly except for a problem with the sound, there is NO sound, either music or SFX, i have tried compatibility mode and sound acceleration is turned off.

Has anyone suffered similar problems and have a solution? I thought the problem might be related to the sound card drivers needed to play fallout, as i could play FOT on a 233 with the audio working properly with soundblaster 16, but not with Live. Is this a problem with my drivers or soundcard or just XP?

Also, does the sound work for FO1 and FO2 using the system i have?

Thanks for the quick response. I found out what the problem was in the end. Turns out i had the motherboard's on board soundcard creating a conflict with its own sound acceleration... that and configuring all of the executables to 98, which i did earlier but only for the BOS.exe.

UPDATE
All audio is working but there is still a problem. The audio seems to be staggered when playing, eg. gunshots echoing and also with the music. Is this a problem with the audio cd?


Cheers.
Mutie
