1st Nascar Game

I was trying to install the Nascar game and when it gets to setting up the sound everything seems to stop. It says that it found the sound card and that it is going to test it. That is where it stops and i don't here a thing. All of my other programs work with the current sound settings. Does anyone have any suggestions that may help me out?

This is usually a DMA or interrupt problem or conflict. You do not give any details on the sound card and system configuration - so I suspect that noone will be able to help. If you include the configuration - someone with the same hardware may be able to help you. /THansen

Tom, this is most likely a DMA or IRQ conflict. Try setting these values differently. It may take a few tries, but you should be able to find the one that works for your system. Happy Holidays, Chuck Bornemann

Or - simply bypass the "TEST" routine. Best Regards, Marc J. Nelson Sim Racing News - USA http://members.aol.com/simracing/index.htm
