Need help, get error on startup every time
« on: December 23, 1999, 11:07:00 AM »
"The ordinal 6 could not be located in the dynamic link library DSOUND.DLL"

I'm on an NT box at work trying to get a glimpse of what the graphics look like, and this happens every time. Anybody know the cause? Using NT 4.0 with SP5, which I believe has DX6 or better in it already (when I went ot MS.com, it said if you wanted DX 7 for NT, download the SP5.)

This little error box pops up whenever I run AH, and nothing else happens (no game menu, no graphics setup menu, etc...)

You must have a joystick plugged in in order for the game to load

I don't think NT supports DX6.
