    Problem with sound... arghh

    Recently had to format the PC to clear up a virus problem, was overdue a format anyway to be honest. Phoenix was working perfectly prior to the rebuild.

    I have re-installed XP Pro with SP3 and all the current drivers (as previously used) but phoenix isnt playing ball On startup it throws and error (screenshot attached) saying there was a problem creating the sound system on your computer... this is odd as the sound is working for all my other apps, os etc.

    Any ideas?

    I have already removed the driver and tried an alternative as its a AC97 chip, but no joy with it.
    Sim works ok once you have clicked through the error but of course there is no sound.

    dont you just hate it when apps do different things from one install to the next... so frustrating!

    Ok, changed the sound configuration in Phoenix to use direct sound and its now working... just having problems with the updates now as its stuck at v2.00n and says its downloaded the update to v2.00q but when restarted makes no attempt to install the update...

    perhaps its just me being unlucky today...

    now manually downloading the 2.5k upgrade from the website... with luck once this is installed I will be able to update it normally... never had this problem before though but it seems I am not alone.

          Got an email today from Phoenix support regarding my issue, they say that XAudio should work and sent me a link to the latest DirectX update and I am pleased to say that following their recommendations I am now back using the XAudio setting and all is working correctly.

          So I have now updated Phoenix to the latest release and all the additional models and flying sites

          Thanks to Phoenix for the excellent support (even on the weekend) - just going to have a (sim) fly now!
