now try with the Audigy disabled, the shortcut ...

C:\ArmA\arma.exe -dsound

you can add the other perameters when we get it working

The Audigy drivers I downloaded are telling me they dont recognise the hardware, think I will need to find other drivers, or possibly the correct ones!!! lol

have you read post above?

new drivers still didnt do it for me so i had to use on board and the -dsound perameter

Right, tried it again with Audigy disabled and the -dsound bit, came back with Arma stopped working........CTD

Just so you are clear, when I say black screen, I mean this (well a variation of this - this isnt mine):

cant see image

can now...looks like a gfx driver issue

try enabling your Audigy with latest drivers and gfx drivers and the -dsound parameter (you could try using -openal parameter instead) and without ..post results

Yeah wouldnt show, linky should tho, its the usual black screen with some greyed boxes which I assume are menu buttons, but cant make out. Do you want me to try enabled onboard sound and running it again?

yes mate...would make sense then try what i have posted above

Right, enabled onboard sound, disabled Audigy, same issue, with the -dsound amendment, have the latest nVidia drivers, will have a look to see if I can find a Audigy driver tomorrow.

Going to leave it until tomorrow now, been at it all night. Thanks for your help m8, will post some more results tomorrow when I have another go.

Cheers dude!

np ..might be wise to jump on steam...save all the post jumping

lol, aye will do. Speak to ya tomorrow!

Got a spare drive here so later going to try and get a dual boot running with XP, think its probably easier!! lol

Will pop on later after I have managed to get a copy of XP.

Well I have just managed to get a dual boot going, so will now go and hopefully install ArmA with XP!! Woot!
