| | Re: No Sound in Safe Mode Nope. The entire idea of Safe Mode is that it starts with only a minimal set of drivers.

| | Re: No Sound in Safe Mode if safe mode provides a better graphics experience with your game, perhaps it is the reduced resolution that is giving you the better response. Try reducing your resolution to 800x600 (minimal default VGA resolution) and see if that improves the game.

| | Re: No Sound in Safe Mode I ever thought of that! Switching to a classic theme instead of aero might help also.
