Hi
Everytime I try starting up my game I get a window that comes up and says
ErrfailedSND. What is the problem and how do I fix it?????
 
Hi Marc,

There's not much on Google about that error...
Which game CD did you install that from?

Might it be that the game requires Open GL, which the recomended M

It's a possibility, but i can't find an answer to this without a lo

Hello.

The game definitely runs on XP. It uses DirectX rather then OpenGL so that
shouldn't be an issue, but you should update your drivers anyway
(www.ati.com). The graphics card may be a good place to start, does it meet
the minimum requirements for the game?

The error message itself ErrFailedSND, sounds more like it could be sound
related, what kind of sound hardware is in your machine, and have you
updated the drivers for that?
