Did Some Say They Got Generic Hardwar Sound Working?

[aChallenged1]

I thought I saw in chat a few days ago that someone said they finally got generic hardward sound working in game. If that is the case, I'd really appriciate (and I am sure others here as well) if that person would post how to get it working on our systems as well.

TIA!

yeah it was me. I found out there was two sets of drivers for my particular motherboard. One that supported DTS digital audio(public) and one that supported OpenAL (private technical support download only) The manufacturer couldnt get get both to work together so they created separate drivers but only publically release the ones that support DTS.

Anyways long story short Rightmark's 3D Sound Analyzer tipped me off to the driver issue when it found i didnt have enough buffers to support EAX 2.0 under Hardware acceleration.

New drivers. problem fixed.
