Nomad 99

I noticed those errors right away. I purchased a Creative Sound Blaster Z SE internal sound card. Do you know if SB has any issues with that model? Hopefully the card has better drivers.

Ah that's good to know. Thanks

OK. I set the realtek audio speakers as the only enabled device. They are running from the 3.5 mm audio out on my motherboard. The the Acer KG281K (NVIDIA High Definition Audio) is simply my monitor speakers and they are disabled. I have attached the dxdaig.txt and the debuglog.txt from the session I just launched. Still no sound after a re-install and disabling every sound device but the speakers running from the motherboard. All other sound and other games output from those speakers without a problem. Also I noticed for the first time (didn't know any better) that the maps are not loading into the briefing screen. DebugLog.txt DxDiag.txt

Still no sounds in the folders . I wonder why? Talking with

Thanks. Already doing it

Ten THAT'S THE PROBLEM LOL! those folders are all empty! should I try uninstalling and then reinstalling?

Yes. Still no sound. Is there supposed to be anything other than the sound.mrf file in the sound directory? I so, it is otherwise empty.

Yes. I'm having the exact same problem. All the other games I run work just fine. I just bought this game and it looks like the sound is NEVER going to work. Great. This is from the debug log : [16:34:34,254] CSound ERROR: Incompatible WAVE file format [16:34:34,254] CSound ERROR: Could not read wave header [16:34:34,254] CSound ERROR: File could not be opened [16:34:34,254] CGame ERROR: Could not initialize sound card!
