AKMoe has a sound problem.  His vox works fine in AH, but he cannot hear or transmit in AH2.  His complete dxdiag output is at the link below.  Any ideas?

Curly check this thread. I looked at his specs, and hopefully a fix when A/H II goes live.

Did he ever test properly with his embedded sound Curly?

Thanks, Frodo.  We can't hear him nor can he hear us.  His MB doesn't use a VIA chipset.  Do you have yours working yet?

Yes, Iron.  Onboard sound activated, SBLive card in the case - doesn't work; Onboard sound activated, SBLive card out of the case - doesn't work.  And the mic was properly switched.

That eliminates the posibility it is a creative labs only problem then. I'm assuming he had all sound but vox when using the onboard audio, same as with the sb live. Guess it could be an incompatiblitiy with the sblive drivers and he didn't remove them.

If he had a spare drive he could do a clean Windows install to test and eliminate the possibility of hardware. Is what I would do but then I have too much free time. ;)

Guess you saw the thread about firewall blocking udp packets which was killing vox Curly?

Moe using a software firewall? You know Windows XP has one built in that you can turn on and off.

Curly, I've been going through painfull moments with vox too. Setting the acceleration sliders, and the voice sampling quality a notch down worked for me.

He moved the acceleration sliders down to 50%.  I doubt he messed w/voice sampling.  Not sure what drives the need to reduce sampling.  His system is more than adequate.

Just heard back from Moe.  No, he turned the firewall off when he discovered the problem.

I have had no luck getting mine to work. People can hear me in AH II Online, but I can hear no one.

I have checked and tried everything in this thread, and in the thread that I posted.

I am just hoping the switch to A/H II will fix the problem.

If I run across anything else, I will post it.
