I don't know riding shotgun in the Apache in the new medal of honor game was pretty good...
I think I lasted about 10 secs before I crash the thing myself... I just couldn't use it and had to walk until I found a tank
Oh hell yeah... that was nice.
I hate when the make me do to many things to fly something on a shooter game, the way they made it in MoH was perfect for me. If I want to play a Flight Sim game, I'll grab one
Well a general update, I've finally put the stuttering to a sound related issue.
However I can't find a way around it.
...I really need a dedicated audio device instead of this thing that came with my motherboard. It is a actual card but drivers for it are in short supply and not very good.
I'm really more into finishing building my new system anyway, if my funds ever allow this core will wind up in the media center box in the den and I'll have a hex core intel or amd to replace it.
Can't seem to come up with the cash for that right now though.
I originally meant to replace this machine nearly a year ago.
Finally settled on just upgrading graphics because it's all I could do.
My last 2 rigs came with Realtek HD onboard audio and I am very happy with it, I don't have any trouble with it... audio drivers failing can be a mother since you almost never expect to have stuttering issues because of audio.
What's your budget on an audio card? I saw one the other day for a very good price.
There is one Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium HD 24-bit 96KHz Sound Card...149.99
I know I saw another for much less than that though.
Ahh, here it is... Dallas Morning News | Dallas Electronics - Electronics Accessories - Fry's Electronics
This is at Frys B&M.
like I said it is actually a card, but they just never followed up with proper drivers for win 7 just the one release, they updated constantly for vista.
...and my budget for this month is about nothing it'll have to wait until next month if anything. I'm not going into savings for a sound card.
dumb question as I am sure you have tried already but... I'm thick headed.
Have you tried any of the Vista drivers... seeing as how you said they did update the vista ones?
Another dumb question... would you be better off with the Onboard chipset card?
it solved a stuttering issue I had in the original crysis game, but then several other things would output no sound at all so I had to revert back to the win 7 drivers.
Sorry to double post but it seems I found somewhat of a workaround to my problem.
Setting it for xp compat. mode seems to make it work properly, but only until the map changes.
Then I have to shutdown the program and restart it for the benefit to show again.
I swear this game is ticking me off.
So, no chance on trying the onboard? at least for testing purposes?
