bando2000 0 Posted May 14, 2001 When playing Giant, the game will reboot when going to another level of the game. I don't understand that. First it would reboot while loading, then I remembered I put -snd3d at the ent of the short cut to enable EAX, Because the game disables it by default. Then I took it off. The game loaded just fine. Then After movie just threw three levels of the game, it would reboot. So I try it again. Got threw three more levels and rebooted again by itself. Now So far I have no crackling like before with my SBLive Gamer. I guess the Service patch's helped that. But of course. It fixs one thing and anoter pops up. any suggestions please.

bando2000 0 Posted May 16, 2001 What I did was go in DX Diagnostic and moved the hardware accelerator from max to basic and it fixed the problem. So far all my DX games run with out the crackling sound and the system doesn't start to reboot after a couple minutes in games. I don't like the idea I have to reduce the hardware acceleration on my sound card to get games to work. In Win9x I never had any of these issues. But of course they weren't as stable either. I guess there is a pay off somewhere out of this. I am looking at getting a Turtle Beach Cruz sound card. But I would like as many reply's as possible on all issues with card that and Win2k combo. Thanks anyways. And I hope this helps others with the same problem. Share this post Link to post
Cardinal 0 Posted May 22, 2001 Bando. Sorry I have not played Giants in w2k so I could not help. But I will comment on my Sound card. I am totally sick of my worthless sblive. This card is buggy, I have had no end of problems and incompatibilities with this fuking card. EAX though good in theory always makes games run like crap, or crash. I am just fed up with this disgraceful card. I am also looking at getting rid of it and going for something better. I have no idea what else is out there. Let me know what decision you make. - Card.
