Vista and Directsound

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Vista and Directsound

Basic functionality is there if you don't mind that any game that you play on Vista that uses DirectSound (pretty much all of them) will now be reduced to standard stereo only.

There's a good article on it here:

Basically Microsoft are trying to move everyone onto their new proprietry sound API that's not compatible with Direct Sound.

If you've got a Creative X-Fi card then you can use Alchemy to convert the game to use OPENAL otherwise nothing.
