My Problem in TS12

[davesnow]

I have determined it isn't sound related. See this thread, then read on:

http://forums.auran.com/trainz/showthread.php?t=75261

I have tried everything to eliminate this issue... I've tried Direct X -- tried OpenGL (my Trainz works significantly better with OpenGL)--- ran my route with the 3-D sound on and with it off... Changed every setting I can think of --- Ran with display settings high and with them low --- Set Virtual Memory to the highest recommended by my system --- Tried it with "Disable Hardware TL" ticked and without. . . I'm exhausted trying to fix this problem........ If ANYONE has any suggestions, I am open to trying anything.

My computer specs:

Falcon Northwest Computer TALON Mach 4
Windows XP Professional - Version 2002 - SP 3
Intel Core i7 CPU
920 @ 2.67 GHz
2.67 GHz, 2.99 GB Ram
ATI Radeon HD 4800 Series
ATI Integrated High Definition Audio - ATI AA01

Thanks guys,

Dave Snow

Have you tried uninstalling and cleaning out the sound driver and then reinstalling? I assume you've tried Aristide's advice?

Yes, I don't think it's sound related.

It not only skips the sound, but if you look closely, the picture skips too.

Not sure if you've already tried this, but have you tried updating/reinstalling the graphics drivers?

I checked this, too. My Graphics Drivers are all okay and up to date.

Dave, do you use CCleaner occassionally?

I noticed on your other thread that you only have 4GB free on the primary hard disk (out of 110GB)

Is this still the case? If it is, it needs a cleanup, especially if it's the system disk.

Windows requires at least 10-15% free space to run well (15% for defragging)

er. . . . I think you were looking at "dricketts" reply showing HIS specs. I have 249 Gig of free space (out of 465 total) on my Primary.

Thanks


EDIT: I may have hit upon something else............ I deleted a couple of locomotives I have been using and I haven't had this skipping "sound & picture" problem for three hours now. I hope that was the cause. I can always find another loco or two! LOL!

Glad to "hear" it! Perhaps you could name the asset locos so we could see if they were causing the problem.

Apologies - that's the one reason why things get messy when there are multiple people posting about similar issues.

Dave, if you don't want to post the content, could you mail me so I could try to confirm your theory?
