Greg 0 Posted March 17, 2003 I feel your pain Goeth. It is possible that the problem is not entirely the SBLive's fault since it occurs in no other game than OFP. However since older drivers and different settings are fine, it must be part of the problem. I have contacted Creative Labs, Code Masters and BIS about the problem, but they have either ignored me, or shown little interest in solving it, after all, our suffering has not cost them $... yet. (The fact that I'm never buying another Creative product, and will hesitate to buy a BIS one and will tell others why, has not yet come into effect). The problem could be something as simple as a slightly invalid sound file associated with the 'shilka' in the game. That invalid sound causes corruption in certain drivers which are sensitive to it. If BIS would even bother to look into this 100% reproducable crash, I'm sure they could find a workaround, you wouldn't need another sound card, and I could stop using my integated sound chip while SBLive sits idle.
