the reboot games didn't make it any easier to find info on this one...

running this game in win95b on a p133/64mb ram/sb16 ct2290 system, i've experienced fairly frequent crashes to desktop that randomly seem to happen while playing certain sound effects. the CD music will keep playing after the crash. windows originally used to throw an error message listing some "invalid memory access" or similar alongside the IRQ of my sound card, but now it just crashes without any message. did anyone else experience this? don't recall ever having sound related crashes in duke3d.

i should probably try and see if running from DOS fixes it but i've had some configuration issue with sound stuttering in menu and CD music only playing on left channel.

edit: now that i think about it i am using a matrox millennium as graphics card which is known to crash build games in 800x600, i'm using lower resolutions which should be fine in theory though, and it seems weird that it would throw up the sound card IRQ if the VGA was the issue.
