You should try to have your sound card on its own IRQ if possible though. You could try this in your autoexec.cfg: set s_mixahead 0.14 //lowers the delay before mixing sounds set s_primary 0 //switches off the direct sound buffer set s_khz 22 //increases the sound quality value These are just the obvious things. They may help though. GL :-) -- Gary<aka Mirth> ICQ#17572632 ------------------------- mirth@the-web.demon.co.uk gary@web-ecosse.com
