That's quite a weird Issue/glitch right there. Which game is having such issue(s)? Also wondering which brand and model of headset/headphones is causing it? Greetings

The last time I used SwiftShader was for a GTA4 graphical mode, if I am not wrong. It was probably SS2.0. Searching that, I find posts as old as from 2008. Hasn't there been any newer build of SS for Windows, considering this project is still going strong. I never used SS, best I had to switch to …

According to PCGamingWiki , the retail release of World Racing 2 uses StarForce 3 (incompatible with Vista or later), but it was removed in patch v1.4.3. Depending on how the installer works, uninstalling the game may not be enough to remove StarForce. One should really use the StarForce upgrade/ …
