Audio'97 is a standard, not a specific product. I assume this is a driver issue. The realtek drivers were no good on my system, they would both the environment sound. In Diablo2, entering a dungeon and leaving it after some time, would result in a Deckard Cain, talking with a strong hollow echoing, as if he were sitting in a spa. I installed the NForce audio drivers and since then my sound is crystal clear. Gabriele Neukam Gabriele.Spamfighter.Neukam(a)t-online.de -- Ah, Information. A property, too valuable these days, to give it away, just so, at no cost.

According to Device Manager my chipset is the VIA686/8231 Audio Controler. They have worked fine with all my other applications for the last couple of years. >>Audio'97 is a standard, not a specific product. I >>assume this is a driver issue.

Don't have a clue what you're talking about here! :) >>I installed the NForce audio drivers and since then my sound is crystal >>clear. Wouldn't I have to have an NForce chip onboard to use these drivers with the VIA chipset?? >>Gabriele Neukam >> >>Gabriele.Spamfighter.Neukam(a)t-online.de -- The Seabat

Maybe it's a codec issue? Have you tried accessing any internet radio stations by using Windows Media Player and if so, does it work? -- Regards from John Corliss.
