    My game crashes at startup


    My game crashes due to the sound bug. When I disable my soundcard, the game is fine, but it won't start if I don't disable the soundcard. I only have 1 audio device, so I don't know why I'm having trouble. I'd really like to be able to play the game with sound, and without having to disable my sound card every time I play the game. Is there any way you can help me? Thanks.

    According to Microsoft


    According to Microsoft, the main source of errors in their sound startup code is related to older dial-up modems which inform Windows that they are also sound devices.* Check to see if you have such a modem and try disabling that rather than your sound card and see if that works for you.* The folks at Microsoft are working on this, but with the holidays I don't know how long it will take for them to have a DirectX update.
