Hey all, I have been noticing lately that I seem to have random freezes with MSTS while running some user made locos (the D&H Alco pack for example which uses the alco sounds). I have a Dell with one of those crappy integrated sound cards and I was wondering if my dxdiag full hardware acceleration was causing the problem with the more complex sound effects. In the game tab, I turned down the total number of sounds played, but I was wondering if I could move this slider back up with the reduced acceleration and in turn what the affect would be on the game performance with each variable changed.Apologiers for the run on sentences, too much coffee today!-rb
