I am trying to play GTA3, and the game crashes right after intro, i read the readme file and it says I need to change the directx setting to software buffer, I went to direct x, tested sound, and it says that hardware buffer can't be used and need to use software buffer. I thought it automatically sets it, but the game still freezes, so I guess it didn't auto set it. Is there another place that i need to go to in order to change the setting to Software Buffer? Please help. Thanks a lot
From Readme:
Motherboard based sound chips:
We have found certain motherboard based sound chipsets do not report
having a hardware sound buffer, and crash with Grand Theft Auto III. We
found that running Microsoft?s ?DXDIAG?and performing the sound tests,
will present the user with an error message saying that a hardware
buffer is not supported, and would you like to use a software buffer.
Selecting a software buffer will allow this sound chipset to work with
Grand Theft Auto III.
