Fixed my XP VOX Blue Screen Problem
« on: July 18, 2003, 01:17:05 PM »
Please note: This may not be everyones VOX solution.

Dell8250
P4 3.06Ghz HT
512 RAM
ATI 9700 Radeon Pro 128
Soundblaster Audigy 2
DX 9.0
XP Home Edition

Problem:
When I used VOX in AH I would blue screen on exit from AH. Some times when i did not use VOX but receive VOX chatter from other players the same would happen.

Fix:
During VOX setup you have an option.

 ----Checking Use Wave In allows you to use the Windows API instead of DirectX for recording. ---

I disabled this and am using directX for recording. Played 4 hours no blue screen using VOX the whole time. Also windows hot keyed several times out of the game to check the time and no blue screen.

Just a consideration, some of the problems here with AH the user might try disabling "Wave IN" to see if they go away. The API hook from the game may be cuaseing problems between AH and the OS.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.
