ZDaemon

I was recently using zdaemon through doom connector and got a windows message saying the sound driver was in use by another application...I accidentally told it to go ahead with no sound. Now, whenever I launch Zdaemon or Doom95 I have only music and no sounds. I have tried changing the settings in both applications (Zd and Doom95) but no sound effects. I deleted all my doom2 and zdaemon files and reinstalled....no sound effects.

Can someone help?

have you tried restarting your computer and closing all applications that use sound? (winamp, windows media player, etc.)

Or you could try re-downloading ZDaemon Wink

Sound drivers always help. If you're using an old PC that is capable of running one sound stream at a time then you'll need to close all media apps whilst running ZDaemon. Also, if you happen to be using Windows 95 (which I doubt you are) ZDaemons performance/nature is unknown on that OS.

I've downloaded and installed a new version of ZDaemon...no change. I also run zd without any other apps launched. I have music but no sound effects.

Also, I have an old shareware version of doom1 and it works with sound.

I'm wondering if there's a config file or setup that I can run through zd to correct the problem.
