ThunderBuns Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 In the game, my sound will occasionally cut out. However, not all of the sounds cut. So far, it's only the NPC speech (both when I talk to them and when they talk to each other), spell sounds (casting, etc), and the sound it plays when you go into your inventory (there are a few more but I can't remember them off the top of my head). I know this isn't show stopping, but it's extremely annoying, especially since I'm a mage and I talk to people a lot. My specs are:CPU: Q9450 not O/C'dGPU: 8800GTXRAM: 4GB Corsair Dominator 1066 (recognized as 3GB on XP :P)MOBO: Biostar TForce TP45HPSPU: Creative SoundBlaster XFi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty ProfessionalPSU: CoolerMaster 850W RS-850-EMBA As with the soundcard, I thought it might be the drivers, since before I reformatted I had drivers from either August or September of 2007 and I never encountered this problem (I also had a different CPU [Q6600], and 2GB of RAM, but I doubt that makes a difference). I downgraded from their latest driver to their stable driver, and though it fixed most of my EAX problems in other games (that first driver made it impossible for me to use EAX on STALKER Clear Sky), the problem still persisted in Oblivion. Since that didn't work, I found a custom driver (PAX) for creative, and installed that, and it still doesn't work. Now I'm thinking I should just try the 2007 drivers...if I can find them. Can anyone help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mewgull Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Got the same problem, but it usually cuts back in when a new action starts like shooting an arrow or similar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderBuns Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 Doesn't cut back in for me =\ It just stays silent. I'm wondering if it's a mod? I guess I'll try a full wipe of Oblivion and hope for the best... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderBuns Posted October 12, 2008 Author Share Posted October 12, 2008 Still doesn't work even at the most fundamental level of Oblivion. Can someone PLEASE reply to the thread with an answer? I'm sure I'm not the only one who has gotten this problem before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
