    Default fallout new vegas and windows 7 64x

    fallout new vegas and windows 7 64x

    for the life of me i can't get mine to work. it either directly crash after i try one of the two exe's or from steam to launch or just after the initial 3 screens or on the very page you can choose i guess to start the game.

    when i get the the start game screen, the sound is totally screeching and fubar.

    any ideas ?

    I'm also playing on Windows 7 x64 and so are about 5 of my friends and most of my colleagues. Sound drivers maybe, a lot of the time people still have the "stock" sound drivers installed.

    i've noticed the following behaviour.

    if the music managed to play after the launcher is started the launched will be fine.

    then the game starts, one screen 1 or 2 the music tries again to start it would play for a sec and be gone. then it would crash instantly after that.

    otherwise it would go to the starting screen and exactly the same, the moment the music starts it crashes.

    however i've got the latest drivers for my audigy 4 [got latest off creative's site] and intel HD audio [love to know where i'm suppose to get the sound driver update for my intel hd audio or my mb dp35dp].... guess up too this point i might as well try reinstalling the os as i've really messed around with it

    AH - Disable your onboard sound in your BIOS - you have an audio provisioning conflict
