    Hi,

    Just one little problem that I am having with Win2k, in games that I play online, I use BCom for most (Clan Games) but with Win2K, BCom, for example works great, until I load up the game, then its game only sounds. The system itself is capable, drivers are up to date, it works great in WinME. Just not in Win2K, I tried to give background apps preference, but still no help. Any one have any ideas it would be great.

    Thanks

    Leverz

    I use RogerWilco on Win2k with an SBlive and it's fine.

    Things to check would be if (You never mentioned what sound card) you can set the number of simultaneous wave-streams or voices on the card - increase it.

    Make sure you have Dx8 for Win2k installed.

    If you installed without ACPI then make sure your soundcard has a unique IRQ.

    Install SP2 (you never know...).

    Its a SB Live! and its the latest version of Dx. Cannot use Roger Wilco as its in clans, and they nearly all using Battlecom. (Its better anyways).

    Leverz lad, email me your details @ gandalf@ireland.com and I'll burn SP2 onto CD and mail it to you.
