I have determined that maybe this game is too complex for my computer to run so I'm just going to delete it and try Warbirds,,,,,,,,,I have a trial run offer that I can take advantage of there also..........thanks for all the helps that everyone gave me over the 3 days I played

The error you are getting is due to the sound card not being initialized.  This error is coming from DirectX.

Either your sound card is not functioning, or the driver is not properly linked to DirectX.  Re-installing the sound card driver or DirectX may correct this.
