Hi, just a few more questions following the discussion about getting WC2 to run. OK, I've managed to solve the memory problem quite well with a boot disk but then few more problems appeared: 1. The game crashes during animation sequences with speech and sometimes during the flight when some speech is played or before it I guess. I know this is probably something to do with the soundcard (I got SBLive) and its IRQ settings, but what can I do to correct this? 2. Another thing that's annoying me is that, can I use speech while using the Roland-MT32 soundsystem? The install script asks if one wants speech even if you don't select Soundblaster. So, is it even possible? I'd rather go for those Roland sounds as the SB effects and music really suck. 3. The speed issue. The game runs too fast on my Celeron-466 even if I run MoSlo Deluxe at 1%. I tried disabling the caches from BIOS but this slows the game too much and all sounds get cracky. CPU-Killer did slow it down quite well but it needs Windows to run so that would mean no SB/Speech. Any suggestions on what to do? Thanks to anyone who can help! -- * Markus Castren
