[Flightgear-users] please help - no sound!
Thanks to Paul Surgeon for reply and apologies for delayed reply by me (domestic matters). I don't think it's the drivers - mine are dated 2004 and on an Nvidia card. I don't have sound problems with any other software at all. I think crux of problem is that "bind sources return" message I get - I'm sure I have to change a path or add something somewhere, but I don't know what or where.

[Flightgear-users] please help - no sound!
Could you more knowledgeable gents please help a 67 year old pensioner trying to get to grips with modern technology? I've downloaded FG; everythings works fine, but no sound. Instead I get multiple messages like this: "OpenAL error(AL illegal command):play (AL source Play)" and "OpenAL error(AL illegal command): bind sources return". I know this is probably a stupid question and/or I'm just being dumb in my old age, but any help would be appreciated. I run a very capable computer using Windows XP.

Re: [Flightgear-users] please help - no sound!
The first thing I suggest is that you update your sound drivers. Windows XP and even the sound drivers that come with the hardware are normally too outdated/broken for OpenAL to work with. The biggest culprits are these cheap audio devices that are built onto the motherboards. The AC97 being the largest problem of all with regards to broken drivers. Try find a audio driver that was released in 2003 or later.
