When first entering NR2003, and having 3D Audio set, I can't hear my own engine, but I can hear all other sounds. Only after I go to Options and uncheck it, re-enter the cockpit, exit back to Options and re-check it, do I finally hear my own engine in 3D Audio. (Note: When it's unchecked, I always hear my own engine). This is all offline. I haven't tried racing online yet. I have an SBLive Value card, and the sounds in NR2003 are set at the maximum 24. My system is an Athlon XP2100 w/512 Megs RAM; Radeon 9700 Pro running Win98SE. Anyone else experienceing this problem? Any suggestions on how to fix it? Thanks!

Try turning down sound hardware acceleration in audio properties and in the dx contol panel. Worked for me. Kurt "BRH @attbi.com>" <"bertrh<no-spam> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
