I have downloaded the driver demo twice now, and both times have failed to get any sound in the game. I know they are there because I have heard them via the Mission Editor. I have a SB Live sound card, anyone else out there with this problem, and if so how, if you were able to, did you remedy this problem. Thanks in advance Scott

I am having the same problem and I too have SBLIVE! value Actually the sound IS PLAYING. turn up the volume all the way and you can just barely hear it in the distance. Still haven't figured it out yet though.

where did you get the editor for the extra cars? thanks P.S. It seems to me the SB live is a big pain in the ***compared to the other creative labs cards... I love my awe64, it always works great and the sound is fantastic! > >I am having the same problem and I too have SBLIVE! value > > Actually the sound IS PLAYING. turn up the volume all the way and you can

I also have a SBLive Value. Tim
Downloading Liveware 2.0 & the 2.1 update from www.creativelabs.com will cure this. Its 25Mb though!!!! So maybe the editor method below is a quicker (& cheaper?) solution Tony > >I am having the same problem and I too have SBLIVE! value > > Actually the sound IS PLAYING. turn up the volume all the way and you can

Men, I do not have Driver demo but the like problem I had in Mechwarrior III with SB Live! . All sounds were OK but mech moving sound. But solving was easy : The cause was of Microsoft DirectX 6.1 drivers shipped with Win98. (namely dsound.dll, dsound.vxd) Any other version of DirectX does not replace these files cos it considers that they are newest. All you need is any DirectX 6.1 (or 6.0) that any latest game have on CD. Just copy these two files in WINDOWS\SYSTEM replacing the old ones and I pray it would help you. If not, please mail or re: , maybe I could tell something another.
