Yes, another soundcard problem. I'm trying to get GL configured for my cab and it's setting up pretty good. However, I cannot for the life of me get sound to work. I've installed DirectX 8.1 but keep getting a DirectSound error when launching a game. I'm using the Win32 binary of Mame 0.58b. Should I just use DOS mame instead? Besides running only in Windows and using DirectX what are the benefits to Win32 over DOS mame? Are there really any? I really like the look of GL and would like to run it under Windows but can someone help me figure this out? I'm so close to being done. Thanks.
