HELP--- no sound in N2 with Yamaha card

4 posts by 4 people · 01 Sep 1997 - 02 Sep 1997

Hello group. My step-brother has installed N2 and after trying just about every sound card option, we can still get no sound. He is currently using a Yamaha OPL3-SA and has no problem with any other games. I had no problem what so ever auto configuring mine. We're baffled here. Can anyone help us with this? Is there some little "thing" he is missing or should give a try?? Are there any tricks that we can try? Thanks People Verne

Hi, I am using the same card setup.... and instead of autodetecting sound...Just choose SoundBlaster Stereo Address 220 IRQ 5 DMA 1 of course, change the address, irq, and dma to suit your card installation your mileage may vary.... but mine also worked when setup as windows sound system and make sure you're using the correct sound drivers... this setup is the only thing that gave me trouble when installing N2 it did it with three different cards that I have used... but eventually, it will work -- Sit down,,Strap in,,Shut up,,Hang on,,Go fast,,Turn left,,Kiss Trophy Girl GGGGGGgoooo #3,,,31,,,28,,,94,,,6,,,5,,,18,,,8,,, Handy^man

Make sure you are booting up to DOS and running through DOS as well. I have the Yamaha Sound system as well. The game should auto-detect Microsoft Sound System in DOS mode.

I install these every day at work,....great cards! Win95 is pretty much cut and dry, but DOS may need seperate drivers. I know their are two sets of drivers, one for Win95 and one for 3.11, I'll check today to see if their are any for DOS. I never have any problem with these, so I don't think think you have a bad one. Sounds like a configuration issue. I'll post more tonight when I find out. Mike ***lane Computers, Tucson AZ Lifes too short,....don't fold your underwear!
