Bogskinke Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 YESS. THANK YOU FOR THIS.It worked for me before, but never after messing around in my speaker settings, and I did not connect the dots. THANK YOU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seelord Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Is there anyway to do these settings in Windows XP? From my understanding XP doesn't have the option to change sound to 24 or 16 bit anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norinvaux Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 (edited) As Seelord mentioned, there any way to do the same on XP? For the moment all I have is XP, and there's no option anywhere that's at all similar to the Vista/7 audio option. I'll try simply reducing/increasing hardware acceleration, but I doubt it'll work. EDIT: As I had assumed, it didn't do anything. So again, I plead, is there any way to do this from XP?It may be somewhere in the driver settings.

amgepo Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 For windows XP users:One user in bethsoft forums received this text from Bethesda support:"Please right click on your speaker icon in the bottom right hand corner and go to Adjust Audio Properties.Go to the audio tab.Under the Sound Playback please go to Advanced.Then please go to the performance tab.There is a Sample Rate Conversion Quality slider barPlease try anything else but Best.If you still have issues after that please review the below....[ then then tell me to do a dxdiag and send it to them if there are still issues]"This didn't help to him neither to others but maybe you have more luck.

amgepo Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Nope didn't work.maybe is the XP version? Did you update your Windows XP to service pack 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seelord Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Nope didn't work.maybe is the XP version? Did you update your Windows XP to service pack 3? II have SP3 and it still doesn't work... Updated graphic and updated directx drivers don't seem to help either. If a program can change the audio playback rate to 16bit then we may be able to fix the problem. But I don't think such a thing exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
