N4 sound problems
Hi folks, after a couple of years away from sim racing I've gotten back into
it and have started off by firing up N4 again. I'm now noticing that while driving, I get a very odd sound, sort of like a turntable needle being pushed across a vinyl record, every 10 or 15 seconds or so. Very irritating and distracting. My specs: Dell XPS w/P4 3.1 ghz processor ATI Radeon 9800 Pro in OpenGL mode 1 Gb SDRAM Creative SB Audigy w/ 5.12.1.328 driver ACT Labs Force RS wheel/pedal combo I've read/heard about some sound problems with the Audigy but really don't want to replace the sound card as I'm happy otherwise. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Gary |

Run dxdiag.exe to start the directX properties. Other solutions require messing with your system bios to increase/or decrease the pcilatency setting. Avoid 3d sound even tho your card is quite capable. dave |
