Originally posted by d2king10 Im using Soundfx, and from the few minuetes of playing, it sounds great.
Remember that SoundFX is more of a wrapper than an audio emulator. Since it's getting audio out and VDMSound isn't, I'm highly suspicous that you've got some software that's allowing direct hardware access (a no-no in XP).
Try this: Download Ms. Pac-Em from this thread:

Use either installer and run MSPACEM.EXE with and without VDMSound. Without should give you poor audio and (probably) no music when starting the game. With VDMSound should give you good quality sound effects and music.

BTW, the XP patch didnt work.
Well that huge file never really was an official patch, so no surprise there...but you still might want to read the last 2 posts by HunterZ in this thread:

...need a Dos boot up disk? If so where can i find one?
If you used a DOS disk, you couldn't use VDMSound. You might be able to run it from a DOS or Win9x boot disk...of course you never gave us your system specs as requested in the Posting Guidelines, so that is pure guesswork.
