elTee Posted January 17, 2002 Posted January 17, 2002 Does anyone know how to help me fix this: Whenever I try to play DOTT the sound won't work. I have Win95, both CD and floppy versions of the game. The sound effects work, but it wont play the music without distorting it, then exploding into static noise. I had the same problem with MI2, but that was solved when I used the floppy disk version instead of the CD. My sound card works with all my games except DOTT and Indy: FOA - why? I wanna know. Can you help?
JackTheGaffer Posted January 18, 2002 Posted January 18, 2002 i had a problem just like this, for dott i have to use the exe that is located in a folder, it may be tentacle.exe. for indy i cant remember what i did. sorry.
Lemon Head Posted January 18, 2002 Posted January 18, 2002 if you haven't done so already, then try the patches
elTee Posted January 18, 2002 Author Posted January 18, 2002 Pathches! Good idea. I'll let you know what happens. Thanks!
elTee Posted January 18, 2002 Author Posted January 18, 2002 No, I never liked bootdisks. This patch says it does the trick on the site, I'm gonna try it when I get on my computer. I gues my cruddy PC was 'high-end' in 1993.
Gabez Posted January 19, 2002 Posted January 19, 2002 Hmmm, I was wondering if anyone could help ME with something. Firstly, DOTT crashes as soon as I open it. Would it help if I ran it in DOS? Secondly, I can't get the sound to work in FOA. The problem, I think, is all this IRQ and Buffer thingies. I looked in my Control Pannel->System->Sound DEvice thingy but I can't find any thing which might tell me what "buffer" I have or what "dysdyusrf" I need. Bah.
