What's up with my audio?

M60Katzen · March 2012

I'm excited to be rejoining the CrossFire world again, but I have a pretty severe problem.

My sound, whenever on, doesn't work properly - it causes major lag, and sounds like I'm trying to play in a football stadium with the echo.

Any way to fix this issue?

I have performed clean installs, I have run Crossfire.exe by itself without and with Steam up (same issue, both times), I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program twice. What do?

Check to make sure that the wire isn't ripped or something and check the sound settings.

No ripped wires, and there's nothing to be set in the sound settings.

Positive - I never mess with that stuff because it makes me a little crazy after a few minutes of dealing with it.

No progress whatsoever to be spoken of.

Does anyone know if there's any known programs/processes that interfere with Crossfire like that? Perhaps it's the change from Aero to Basic theme on Vista...?

Not sure if this will help but worth a try.

* Open regedit
* Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile
* There will be an entry for network performance throttling, default value is 10; set it to FFFFFFFF hex (willl look like 0xFFFFFFFF to the right of the entry)
* Reboot
