Kevin Vosper 1115828 Posted July 1, 2009 at 09:11 AM Posted July 1, 2009 at 09:11 AM Ok, so I've been FSing since the beginning (PC Jr. ), but now I decided to get serious. MORE SERIOUS! I am a real world pilot (ppl), and I've always liked that FS helps with training to an extent, but alas I am trying to get more serious. Here's the problem: I'm running vista 64, 8gb ram, 512DDR4, and an amd quad 2.66 with fsx. Should be sufficient right? Still there are problems. I just tried to get on VATSIM for the first time. After a bit of har[Mod - Happy Thoughts]ment, I finnally got connected. BUT!!!! Somewhere along the way it kills my sound card... not just FS sound, but all sound until I restart the machine. Then all is well again until I repeat the cycle. It's an asus board built-in soundcard by the way. Also, I've just recently purchased the Level D 767, I love it, but could that be the problem? Either way, I have no voice with a [frozen?] sound card and I'd sure like to become part of the VATSIM community. I think It'll help with my real-world training Any advice will help, Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Gerrish Posted July 1, 2009 at 10:34 PM Posted July 1, 2009 at 10:34 PM onboard audio has a nasty habit of not working properly. You might want to thing about getting a new audio card. there are quite a few in a range of prices on newegg.com they are relatively easy to install and configure as well Richard Gerrish Developer, STM Applications Group Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Morris 920567 Posted July 5, 2009 at 12:29 AM Posted July 5, 2009 at 12:29 AM Agreed. The term "on board" shouldn't be used with anything related to Audio or Video. LAN....maybe. http://www.execjetva.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
