I have to use almost entirely the sounds ~ because my vision is like this ^^^  But I've never been able to do that with speakers... only with a headset.

Something's the matter with my sounds though... I can't hear planes when they're inbound until they're about 200 out (even then, I only hear a slight sputter)... I can only hear the planes AFTER they've shot the crap out of me and are outbound.


With regards to your sound does this help ? Right click the bell icon on you desk top.  Click "open volume control" click "options" and tick anything that you feel is needed.  Then move all the sliders to max like this screen shot.

TexasMom, Are all of your game sounds at the default levels, or have you adjusted some of them?  It sounds to me like the problem might be there, but not sure because the only one I have ever adjusted is the air raid alarm (practically set to zero for sanity). :rolleyes:

Thanks Lynx & Panzerr,

I did move my sound settings to where you recommended. I don't recall having previously made any changes, but I consider the computer to be one of those man-things that falls into my husband's realm of responsibility. I tell him it's broke, he fixes it.    :aok

I think there's an improvement by making the changes you recommended, but will log on tonight after the TxLittleOnes go to sleep to really check it out. :)

I appreciate it!
