Hubert Cater Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Hi Nashorn1, Sorry to hear about the trouble, can you confirm that your system meets the minimum system specs? Also, can you try downloading the latest version of DirectX as well as the latest drivers for your Sound and Video Cards? Usually one of these will resolve the issue for you. I hope this helps, Hubert 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubert Cater Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Bluuman, can you try applying the latest sound drivers as well just to confirm that the sound card is not an issue? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
