Vista no sound
Vista no sound
Hi,
Spent 12 hours trying to get carmageddon 2 to work on vista yesturday and finally done it but I have no sound and if I try to launch the game using "carma2_HW" all I get is a black/blank screen. At the moment I use the standard "carma2.exe" and this works fine but as I said no sound.
Any help please
Also does a Sapphire RADEON X1650 PRO 512mb graphic card work ok with that "glide wrapper" ?
Thank you for any help

Re: Vista no sound
Yes I was, but I have XP now and it's working!
Re: Vista no sound
God I know this post is old, like last year old. But in the past you guys never let me down in helping. I have been out of the loop for way too long! VISTA+C2=NO SOUND?! Glide wrapper works good. Patch for sound? maybe?
i dont want to go backwards in O.S.'s-XP is out of the question. thanks.

Re: Vista no sound
You need the updated carma2_hw.exe file (I think it's the XP/no-CD version). Then right click on it and select properties and go to the Compatibility tab. Run the program in compatibility mode for Win98/ME and check "Run in 640x480 screen resolution". Then run carma2_hw.exe directly and providing you set up the glide wrapper correctly, C2 will run in the largest res specified in the glide wrapper and will have sound.
Re: Vista no sound
I read the part on GEH's post, but only part of what you informed me was there. I thank you. Really.Hours of annoyance avoided.
