hi all, was wondering if anyone here has an idea to this problem, of if that have / had it...

got the full game, and it runs fine apart from the sound which basically sounds like its echoing/reverberating all the time, and its very annoying.. does it in game and in menu, and tried everything i can think of to get rid of it to no avail, so wondering if any of you have an ide.

Its only ever happened on this game and GTAVC, of which i fixed with an option in-game, but rct3 doesnt seem to want to be fixed..

the basic DirectX stuff below if its useful to anyone, cut short, sry bout the size

got latest sound drivers installed, altho it doesnt seem to say that on this log for some reason, got 2000 instead of the late 2001 ones..
