Arghul 0 Posted November 20, 2001 Hi there, I'm running Windows NT 4.0 and can't play Diablo, the first game. I get a black screen which exits to desktop and an error message appears about some sound problem. Here it is: --------------------------------------------- Direct sound error (C:\Src\Diablo\Source\SOUND.CPP:375) The parameter is incorrect --------------------------------------------- I saw on the site that Diablo runs under NT, and in fact I even got DII - Lord of Destruction. Bw, there is no C:\Src\Diablo path on the hard drive at all. I tested the game on another PC running NT and the same error msg appears. Plz help! Thanks in advance! Share this post Link to post
Admiral LSD 0 Posted November 21, 2001 Its trying to initialise a DirectSound device but since NT4 had no DirectSound drivers its bombing out. Does Diablo have a facility to change the sound output from DirectSound to the Wave Mapper? Share this post Link to post
Arghul 0 Posted November 21, 2001 I don't have an idea, but it looks like there's no way to change sound output. Possible solutions, anyone? Share this post Link to post
