Audio Problems with Kpro/98SE

[George]

Developed serious audio problems playing in Kpro on the 98SE system, especially when using ADJUST LYRICS SCREEN to make sweep corrections.
Best description I can give it is the audio started "fluttering". Got so bad I could not work with the program..Have no idea if this may relate to problems others are reporting.

Made the following corrections in my system and have been working in the program since Monday evening without a hitch.

Main Hardware accellerator:

R.Click on any blank area of desktop
L.Click on PROPERTIES
L.Click onSETTINGS
L.Click on ADVANCD
L.Click on PERFORMANCE
Move the hardware accellerator slide all the way to the left to NONE
Apply settings and exit...don't reboot yet

Now go into CONTROL PANEL
Go into MULTIMEDIA
At PLAYBACK menu select preferred device(sound card)
L.Click ADVANCED PROPERTIES
L.Click PERFORMANCE
Move HARDWARE ACCELLERATOR slider all the way to the left to NONE
Move SAMPLE RATE CONVERSION QUALITY all the way to the left to GOOD
Apply settings and exit.

Now re-boot the pc.

As I said, been using the program all week with these settings and the program is peforming flawlessly. I have noticed no adverse effects with any other programs. If this is encountered, I would imagine some fine tuning can be done to these settings to find that happy compromise point.

Hope this helps someone.
