Title: Sound cracking under Vista
Post by: Amo on September 12, 2007, 05:10:22 PM

Hi Mnemonic,

on our Vista system is the sound cracking (hope it is the right word...). It means, that the sound is playing but it makes short noises while playing.

The specs are the following:

Vista Ultimate
AC97 Onboard sound (Gigabyte board)

Are there any known issues? It happens only in WME not in other progs/games. So it doesn't seem to be a driver issue.
The game has been compiled with 1.8beta3

Regards

Amo

No, it's not a known issue. I'm using Vista for a couple of months without any problems. Have you tried updating the driver?

I check that if there is a newer version. The machine is not the youngest anymore, hopefully there are some Vista drivers. I keep you informed.

OK, drivers from 2007 have been installed, but the problem remains. I love problems like this. As usual: No way to reproduce it. We install a version an our new Laptop, lets see if it occurs there, too. If not it is time for a hint in our readme  :-[

Ok, solved it. The drivers were not the latest. So it is not a bug.
