turn down the soundcard's hardware acceleration in the properties under device manager(I think!) move it down one notch, test gpl if it still crackles...move it down another notch repeat... dave henrie

Turned down the sample rate conversion quality too. Turned down volume. I never had problems before when I was using my onboard sound. It's not just the crackles. If I crash the car and flip it a few times, the engine sounds muffled, when I hit F2 to initiate the replay and resume, the sound is back to normal again. -- karkrazy AT softhome DOT net
