As far as I can tell..
The vehicle movement sound from Saving Pvt Ryan...
The mouse click...
the 160 numbered files I think...(various small arms)
Not all the 160 files are problematic...its just hard to tell which ones.
Large caliber arty hits.
Vehicle Destroyed sound.
sound 212 sometimes comes and goes.
Small arms hits on tanks...(sometime I just get a tonk sound) should this be a ricochet?
I cant tell if it supposed to playing a ricochet or there is an actual "TONK" sound.
also you hear a ricochet before a vehicle blows up??
Changed all these to wav files except #212...
Things nearly 99% fixced now...except for that daggone TONK...I keep getting.

Are you saying that a conversion to WAV fixes your problem whith whatever third-party stuff (CODEC or MP3 player perhaps) - fixes the sound problem for you?.

Changing to WAV would definately point to it being something installed on your system that is not "plain vanilla Microsoft" with regards to MP3 sound handling.

Now - if we could just figure out precisely what is installed on a few end users machines that is causing this (as it was not apparent at all on a dozen plus playtester XP machines), we would be able to isolate the problem.
