Hi All!

I've found that one can resolve most playability issues by setting sound hardware acceleration to basic. To do so, Start>Run>dxdiag (Enter). Go to Sound 1 tab, set hardware acceleration to the first tick. You may wish to do this to the Sound 2 tab also, but probably not necessary. You should see a differnt driver than your better and best acceleration use. I have a decent but not cutting edge machine, and I found that this allowed me to hear all the sound and play without stuttering. If your box is like mine, you'll still likely want to set all the video performance values to low, set resolution to lowest, and do not window the game. It won't be it's best, but you'll be able to play, and it is fun! One more tip: I find setting the roll controls to the arrow keys and the rudder keys to A and D works much better for me. Hope this helps some of you. Meet you up there.
