Ok, I've been playing Doom since I was like 7. But that was a long time ago. A few months ago I downloaded a version off of [no linking to warez and such.... first & final warning, Mordeth] and installed it on two systems (one with Win98, the other with Win95). It worked fine, absolutely perfectly. I also was told how to set up an IXP so that I could play over LAN.
Well, I just got a new computer with Window XP. Doom will not run with sound (and it is retarded without sound!) and I have no clue why. The sound slows the computer a lot. Then we had the memory on the Win98 computer and installed XP on it and have the same problem there now.
So I have two questions that I really really need answered.
#1) How do I fix the sound with Windows XP? There has got to be a way, and my computer skills are not what you would call quality. Please help!
#2) I remember it being extremely simple to set up the IXP but I forget how. could someone help me do this as well? AIM me at golittierecordgo. I appreciate this A LOT.
Thanks
