Soundcard

[eric_sp]

I'm using a onboard soundcard and can't run any AGS games, unless i disable music and sound. Please, if is there a way to solve this, tell me. I don't know much details about the PC, but I guess I can take a look at it if needed.

Can you give more details? What do you mean, you "can't run any AGS games"? Why not? What happens?

Also, try upgrading DirectX and/or the soundcard's drivers (if not done so), this usually fixes this kind of problems.

[eric_sp]

I'll try updating drivers. Thanks for the tip.

I can't run any AGS made games, unless I disable music and sound. If I try to run without disabling these options, the game doesn't open, and the screen goes crazy - all the colors change - and also I can't use mouse or keyboard - so all I can do is to reset.

Also, how do I know if AGS (the software, not a game) is compatible with my soundcard?

[Pumaman]

AGS should work with all DirectX-compatible soundcards in Windows. Are you able to play non-AGS games with sound successfully?

[eric_sp]

Yes, most of non-AGS games run with sound.
I still need to update my DirectX (haven't got the time yet).
