Sound options greyed out
Ellie:
Now I've narrowed down to the pets patch. The sound works up to pets, but not with the patch installed.
I don't really feel well about uninstalling xp security updates but I'll give it a try.
EDIT: I uninstalled all windows updates visible from add/remove programs, and now it works up to seasons+patch, but in BV there's still no sound. aargh.
EDIT2: I fiddled some more quite randomly and now it all works again. Phew. Stupid Microsoft, stupid EAxis.
bowrain:
So now the sounds are working fine? Was it windows updates?

Well, you know the joke: An electrical engineer, a mechanical engineer, and a Microsoft engineer are driving down the road in a car when the car stalls and dies. The mechanical engineer states, "I think this is a mechanical problem. Perhaps I should have a look.". The electrical engineer states, "No, I believe this is an electrical problem. I should check.". The Microsoft engineer says, "Let's just close all the windows, get out of the car, and then get back into the car again.".

I heard a similar joke, except the punchline went something like, "Let's just shut it down and restart it."

I have the same problem with BV, which I just arred. Tried 2 different versions, same problem. Sound worked fine with Seasons.
Okay, this was fixed by patching and getting a new version of the no-CD crack that was compatible with the patch. If you arred, Ellie, this might be your solution, too.
