gro Posted April 1, 2002 Share Posted April 1, 2002 I cannot get rid of frequent (As often as every 5 minutes) game crashes in this , and other FPS games based on the Q3 engine (MOH, Wolf etc). I assume its the same problem that Wolf had with the Audigy, it was mentioned in Wolf's readme, but not JK2. The problem does not happen in any other game, and the majority of my games (racing sims) rarely crash. The fact that lowering/turning off sound acceleration seems to make crashes less frequent leads me to beleive its the card. Some crashes have also involved high pitch squealing from the speakers. I'm running Windows XP Pro Athlon 1.2@1.3 (Not overclocking makes no difference) 768 MB RAM Epox 8KTA3 (Latest bios revision and VIA 4in1 4.37 drivers) Creative Geforce 2 (Nvidia 23.10 drivers) Soundblaster Audigy (Latest drivers, as well as XP patch) Any suggestions????

Theguy Posted April 1, 2002 Share Posted April 1, 2002 I have been getting crashes too. what kind of crashes are u getting? sometimes the computer will just stop and make a high piched sound. and other times it just restarts the whole computer o its own. P3 800 512 ram voodoo 5500 Sound blaster A. win. XP home surly a games company would test a new sound card like this. P.S. are u just using tthe drivers or are u useing all the software which comes with the sound blaster CD? with XP i can only get drivers to work. tryed updating them but then i cant speak into mic.

gro Posted April 2, 2002 Author Share Posted April 2, 2002 Usually just game freezes, rarely are they recoverable and they usually require a reboot. I just use the necessary soundblaster components, I don't care for all the other Creative crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
