Hay Thomas! Thanks for the tip, you too Phil and Shawn for the links to the
drivers. Tom, I downloaded the direct exe from your web site and when I
click on it it ask me for a location to store the files, can this be any
where on my system? Secondly when I do pick a location and click on the zip
file there are five files in there and none of them are a set up file or any
type of self running file, so I am wondering what to do with those five
files that are opened up. Thanks once again for your help with this. Game
On! Sly!

Hi Sylvester,
I'm not quite sure how to solve your sound card issue, but I'm fairly
certain it isn't a DirectX issue. One thing I think you probably should
have not of done is installed an older version of DirectX. That tends to
cause more problems than it is worth so you will want to install an
upgrade as soon as possible to insure you didn't break anything by
downgrading like that.
Anyway, if you want to know the current build of DirectX you are running
you need to run the dxdiag program. Unfortunately, it isn't very specific
in terms of weather you have say a March or Auggest release of DirectX,
but you can get some info. Go to start, click on run, and type in dxdiag
in the edit field, and click on ok. The dxdiag program will ask you if you
want to check your drivers etc. Answer no, and a window will appear
displaying various system info including your DirectX build number.

Greetings All! I am having a very annoying sound issue. I am running a
system with X P with a sound blaster audigy sound card and the speakers
are set to 5 point 1. Note I have tried to change the sound mode to
stereo headphones with the same results. My problem is with Draconis
Entertainments The Ultimate Soundoku. Note, I have all the other titles
by them such as Monkey Business, Dyno Man Sarah Ten pin alley an Alien
outback and do not have this problem. The problem is with panning, I run
the check speakers option on all those titles, and every other game on my
system and the only other games with panning issues is Grizzly Gulch, and
Jim Kitchens Mach 1 game. What is strange is that the opening title
sounds and the menu sounds are fine but when I start the game I am only
getting the left channel. With Grizzly gulch I get stereo for every
sound in the game except when trying to shoot the gun the clicking sound
does not pan, and Yes I did install the patch from the babysoft web site
for grizzly and I get the same results. I think the problem is also
happening with Jim Kitchens Baseball but have not confirmed this. Again
the strange thing is that its not like the right channel is out it does
not pan for some reason. I installed an older version of direct exe and
this has not helped. I have a second X P system and these games pan fine
on that system but not on my main one. Lastly does any one know the
phrase to type in to find out which version of direct exe you are
running that would be great as well so I can see which version I am
running. I would be Very happy if any of you could offer any suggestions
as to what the heck is going on here. Thanks and Game On! Sly! ---
