sic123 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 nothing. I've tried both views and i'm a bit p****d as I had a similar problem on my dad's laptop last year, despite it easily meeting the specification Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bell Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 I tend to play the game without sound, and listen to music instead. I've had issues in the past with sounds problems on FM and figured it doesn't really add THAT much to the game anyway. Try checking fr updated drivers for your sound card.

EnderMB Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Regardless of whether this works it is still not a fix for those of us that wish to play the game with sound (i.e. 99.999% of us). I've tried updating my graphics card drivers and reinstalling DirectX 9c but to no avail. Any one have any ideas of what I could do next? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnderMB Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Sorry to double-post, but I've managed to fix the error on my computer through any combination of these steps. I just thought I'd add it here in case someone else is desperate enough to try it and see if it works. This is all most likely complete overkill but it's kept my Vista install alive with very few problems for two years. 1) Download CCleaner and clean everything you can, all logs and temporary files. As well as this, use it to clean your registry of errors. 2) Download Revo Uninstaller and uninstall any crap you have on your computer using the advanced option. If you want to really clean your FM installation use it to uninstall FM09 and reinstall it at the end of this. 3) Do the typical virus/spyware/adware scans. I use Trend Micro's online scanner (search Google for Housecall Trend Micro), Ad-Aware, Spybot and AVG Antivirus on my computer. 4) Uninstall and reinstall DirectX, as well as your graphics drivers. Conveniently, Windows Update seemed to have new drivers for my Graphics Card. I had attempted to install the drivers on their own before this, but that had no real effect. Thankfully, I decided to do the rest of the steps and now it seems to work for me. Oh well, if you want to give your computer a good clean then the steps are there for you. I don't guarantee it'll work, nor do I expect it to, but it worked for me, and that's something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
