Windows XP and Might and Magic VI - Sound Issues

[StealthAssassin 0]

MM7 and MM8 run fine for me under XP with no problems, but MM6 only plays sounds about 10% - 25% of the time. These are the normal battle sounds, walking sounds, menu clicks, etc.

 

System Specs:

 

Windows XP Pro SP1

P3 800

384 MB PC133 SDRAM

SoundBlaster Live! Platinum

Geforce 2 GTS Pro

 

All drivers are updated to the latest versions.

DirectX - 8.1

 

Anyone know of a way to remedy this?

 

Thanks in advance,

I also have this problem.. has this ever been fixed?

Have you tried this update? Sounds like a timing side effect with the new PC systems.

make sure compatibility mode is OFF for the executable and read the install instructions of the zip file.

 

good luck
