Status: offline 		This is hardly any new problem. I've had it with all versions of SPWAW that I've played (4.3 -> ), but it's gotten worse. I have a sound blaster live soundcard, and the noise seem to appear at the breifing and debreifing screens, but seldomly in a battle. It only occurs after I've played awhile, and after it does it will come and go until I shut down the program and restart my computer.

Nah, not the SB Live. I use one and it works flawlessly with this version and the last. I used to have a little trbl along these lines with my old mx300 based on the vortex chip set, but I corrected it by turning off it accelleration drivers. But in your case, I would check your multimedia settings and make sure one of those fancy schmancy media filters like "Total Recorder" or the like isnt controlling what comes out of the sound card before it reaches the game engine. Also check precisely what device or driver is controlling your WAV. files. With all the junk that stealthily installs itself everytime you add a new program, who knows what you'll find in there.

Status: offline 		Those with VIA KT133/A and live! might want to check this out: http://www.viahardware.com/download/index.shtm#other "1.0 - VIA's fix for KT133/A systems with Soundblaster Live sound cards. Should clear up any file corruption problems that may occur with the 686B southbridge." Installed it, the music still screeched, but after I turned it off, it's been working quite nicely (at least for now) Timo

No, definitly not a SB problem! If it was, it should happen with every one using it. As I said, I have a SB Player and an Via (Abit KA7-100) chipset and never had such a bug. With the K6 200, AWE 64 I had before, never heard any sound problem with any SP version either!

This does seem kinda resonable... I always start the game fromn the menu system.
