I had been playing GPL without a problem using DirectX 5, but As soon
as I installed 6.0 I can't get the sound to work properly.  I hear
most of the game sounds(skiding, collisions, other cars, etc)  but I
can *barely* hear my own car and when I do hear it, it sounds very
muffled.  I play other games that require DirectX 6, so just going
back to 5 isn't an option....any ideas??

thanks

You'll have to uninstall and reinstall the game once you change your DirectX
drivers.

Hmmm, sounds like you overwrote your original sound card drivers when
you installed X6,  reinstall your sound card drivers.  Try it, it might
work!
