-- Video, sound problem! (https://volitionwatch.game-warden.com/vwbb/showthread.php?threadid=6686)

Video, sound problem!

Im running an AMD k/6 200mhz mmx
Win 98
96 mb ram(edo)
32mb Nvidia TNT2 M64 graphics card with the latest det. drivers.
10g h/d
directx 8.1
40x CDROM

The only problem ive ever had is on the video, and that is that the sound stops every few seconds (for a few tenths of a second)and then continues from where it left off. Not sure why this is? maybe my sound card, or maybe the read-ahead(set to maximum). The same happened on FS1 on the vid scenes, so it must be something to do with the sound or the CD, cos the video plays perfect.

Oh one question, why was there no video on Silent Threat?

SOrry i copied that from something i posted earlier, any idea why i get this kind of choppy sound? It ruins what would be some great video's, for me.
any ideas guys?

you're probably reading the videos off of the discs. You dont have a lot of memory, so when it runs out of room in memory for the video, it dumps then loads the next part of the video. if you had 512 megs of ram, you more then likely wouldn't experience that problem. But since you have 96, an uncompressed movie streaming off of a disc can easily eat that up.

1st reccommendation: more ram. EDO ram is dirt cheap.
2nd reccommendation: system overhaul.
