Funny thing, my icr2 sound was working great, could hear Paul Page and music at intro, then suddenly with NO changes whatsoever, no voices, no music. Engine sounds are still here. BUT, when I run in vga mode, voices come back! Exit game, restart game in SVGA, engine noise, no Paul Page. Huh. Anyone have any idea what the deal is? Thanks, Craig Marcho http://members.gnn.com/cmarcho/cmarcho.htm

I think you got it exactly! You see, this weekend, I "borrowed" 16 megs from my work machine, and added it to my 8, and everything worked great. But when Monday rolls around and I'm reduced to 8 meg again, the voice dissappears! Does Paul Page speak anywhere else besides the intro? Craig Marcho http://members.gnn.com/cmarcho/cmarcho.htm

If you only have 8 megs of memory, this is your problem. SVGA takes more memory than VGA. Running in SVGA doesnt leave enough memory for Paul Page to speak on an 8 meg system. This comes from someone on compuserve. Does make sense though. Mike

I have the same problem on an 8MB system, but no problem at all on a 24MB system. -- Brian Wong Systems Engineering Group (Servers)

Simply creat that boot disk using that setup program from ICR2. I have only 8Megs of RAM. I am able to hear Paul, Music, Engine, tire, and crash noises, in digitized form, whether I am in VGA or SVGA when I use the boot disk! Billy

I tried to make a boot disk, but the program says it can't. So I'm stuck in VGA w/little sound until I can figure out why I can't create a boot disk. Any suggestions on why the program refuses to make a boot disk for me. Jay Walker
