Game does not work - Page 2

There's been some weird sound related bugs in a number of projects i've seen lately. My game Coliseum also had a few people with sound related crashes too. When I turned off the music, all the people with problems ran fine.

I ended up having to write my own basic custom-contained ActiveX sound playing file (device-independent) to get around the problem and make sure no one else had trouble.

Arrgh. Windows sure is fun sometimes.

For those who read my first message, I did manage to get the game to work by manually changing the screen resolution to 1024 x 768 prior to starting the game.

I've had some similar problems with it when the desktop color depth when I started the game was different than the color depth that the game was set to use. Was there a discrepancy between the game and the desktop color settings?

I play in Windowed mode almost all of the time, though, so it's almost always someone else who notices these things.
