rec.autos.simulators

Hi, Before running the game, close all applications except Systray and
Explorer, by pressing Ctrl, Alt, Delete.
Also once you're in the game, go to Configure, Sound and make sure that all
the sounds are ON.

 Title:         F1 Racing Simulation
 Version:       Full retail version
 Problem:
 Hello Tech Group;
 I just received \"F1 racing simulation\" and I love the sim but I am
 having sound problems!! When I go into F1 the intro and sound runs fine,
 the menu runs a back ground of workshop effect sounds fine & when the
 quick race is loading is plays music while loading is fine!
 Now I\"m into the race! Sometimes it will start with my engine and all
 other sounds fine but sometimes it will not! When I run the race for the
 1st time the sound in the game is fine for about 4 to 6minutes of racing
 but then I hear nothing except the spotters voice only and all the other
 sounds shutoff! So I have No engine, No skid or other sounds except I
 always get the spotters voice "yellow flag, "best lap" & etc..
 I raced several times and I always hear the spotters messages with the
 yellow flag, new fast lap etc. but no other sounds i.e. engines, skids &
 any other sound!
 All the graphics & sounds in the menu are fine but everytime I go into a
 race the same problem no sound except the spotters voice!! Once in awhile
 in the race I hear [for a split second] F1 sim trying to make the engine
 sound everytime I push Button 1 on my joystick on & off.. This is my
 configured accelerator button on my joystick!! This is the only time I
 remotely hear anykind of engine sound.
 Finally when I re-boot Windows 98 I get the sound almost everytime in the
 F1 race for the short time of 4 to 6 minutes but then nothing all over
 again!
 Computer Specs:
 O/S=Windows 98, Main Video=Sierra Screamin 3D 4mgs Dram, 3dx Card=3D
 Blaster Voodoo2 8mgs, M-board=Asus P2L97, CPU=Intel P-II 266mmx, Sound
 card=Sound Blaster
 PCI64, RAM=64mgs, HD=6.4g Partitioned Three 2.1g, Modem=Extrenal Com1
 Zoom56k.
 I know it might be just an \"arguement switch line or letter\" but also as
 complicated re-addresing interupts but I have no conflict at all!
 So any and all help will be appreciated!
 Thank you in Advance Thomas E Johnson
