DX9 Sound Problems

[Flatline]

Whenever I start up the demo, I get horrible grating/screeching sounds over the actual game music. It's unbearable and makes the game unplayable due to not being able to hear anything.

I've updated my drivers (GeForce 3 Ti 200 and SB Audigy 2), and set DX sound acceleration to every level, and am still having trouble.

I waited until the "official" demo was released to see if it would make a difference, but I'm having the same problems now that I did with the first demo.

If anyone has a fix for this, I'd love to know it.

not to worry. this is just Lupin trying to escape confinement where he was placed once it was discovered he's NOT a true commando...

Weiner is right about lupin. He is not commandos material.
I have no real solutions for your problem.
I have learn that a PC can be more moody and nuts than many women...

Excuseme, gentlemans....I have a little question wants to ask your guys. Is there anyone who can tell me the minimum system requirement of C3 ????? I live in a very poor country and...hah...as you could inmagine...my PC system is so poor too. It's still enough for me to completed Commandos Behind the Enemy lines and Beyond the Call of Duty, and Comandos 2 : Men of Courage, too....But...heh..heh...You know, with a new ver. of a game, it's always make me worry. So, if you know about the system requirement of C3, please tell me....thank you very much.

I think your problem is that your sound card doesn't have the ability to use a hardware accelerated music port. I had the exact same problem until I switched to software accelaration in the DirectX Diagnostic Tool. Now it works perfectly and I can finally play the demo. So mind you, I haven't tried this out in the game but I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work.

This is what you do:

1. Open dxdiag.exe (If you don't know where it is go into the Start menu, select Search and do a search for dxdiag.exe and double click it).

2. In the DirectX Diagnostic Tool click on the Music Tab.

3. Under DirectX Features there should be an item called "Deafult Port Acceleration". Just click on "Disable" and you should be good to go.

Hope this helps you and anyone else who's experiencing this problem out.
