Sorry, thought it may have been a problem others had seen and unrelated to
any particular type of sound card...
FWIW here is my setup:
Celeron 300a o'ced to 450
Gigabyte 686BX mboard (intel 440bx based)
i740 8MB 2d card
voodoo 2 12 mb
64 mb 100mhz sdram
Yamaha OPL3-saX isa sound card
The game absolutely screams on this setup (I feel it is too fast) So the
sound probs are not affecting my performance.
I have tried different demos (I am dloading a new win98 version now)
microsoft's drivers for my sound card, the drivers that came with the sound
card, and new drivers from Yamaha's site. I have tried disabling the
joystick and playing with the keyboard, setting different numbers of sound
channels, different volumes etc
The sound is *completely* garbled not just a little bit of static as others
have reported.
As I have said, I do not have this problem with *any* other game whatsoever,
the sound is always perfect and crystal clear. (Quake 2, Unreal, WW2
fighters demo, Tomb raider 2, forsaken, F1RS, Battlezone, NFS3, Hexen 2,
motoracer 2, Half -life, links ls, F15, longbow 2 etc etc)
Could anyone out there help me, I would love to get this game but the sound
prob makes it a no go at the moment.
Cheers,
Salt.
