Check the 'Master Volume' control in the sound settings.  You might also want to reinstall your sound card drivers and whatever version of DirectX you are using.

Nothing new installed, latest drivers are loaded. Everything was working perfect. Running DirectX 9.0a. This has me stumped.

Does your sound card work with the DXDiag tests or in any other games?


Click on the Start button on your desktop, click on Run and then type "DXDiag".  When the DXDiag panel appears, click on the 'Sound' tab and run the DXDiag tests to make sure that your sound card is working properly under DirectX.  You might also want to try lowering your sound acceleration down one notch as this seems to fix a few 'stuttering' problems related with AH and certain sound cards.

Think I have located the problem. For some reason Windoze moved my IRQ's around and I had a conflict with a wave device. Moved them around and we will see if that stops it. Thanks for the assist.
