I installed GTA Vice City after a real long time. my problem is i have no sound, but only with this game. i go to the options menu and it says NO AUDIO HARDWARE which is'nt true. i can hear to music and stuffs, but when i start my game, the sound disappears.
Any suggestions?? Please Help!
Even i had the same problem, but was unable to solve. So i played other games and forgot about it. Then later when i formatted and installed Vista Ultimate it worked fine. I wished i had a working solution for this.
Try re-installing your audio drivers or update to the latest drivers. Might help you, i'm not sure what has caused this type of problem. Even try re-installing the game. Were you able to hear the game sound before or it didn't come up anytime? If this is the case, your Installation media is corrupt!
Try this out :
This actually worked for me when i had the similar issue.
In the GTA:Vice City folder, You have a MS-DOS Batch file named "TecAudio", right click on it, click on edit, and delete the line that says something like "startw wav2raw".
Not "del start2.exe", and not "del wav2raw.exe", but just that first part. It should be right under the part that says "Please Wait - Processing Main AudioFile".
Once that's deleted, run the TecAudio file.
Once it's done start the game.
That's how I did it. Hope this works for you too...! All the best!
Ok i'll try it out...! Thanks everyone! Hope this works, otherwise my $20 would go in vain...! i played it only a week or so...! once again thanx to all...
it happened to me too, all you have to do is disable your computers firewall/virus protection when you are installing the game and then it will work then enable your firewall again.
Thanks for the tip . :thumbup1:Quote:

1. Go to the audio folder on the game
2. Find the sfx.wav file
3. Open windows explorer (start>all programs> accessories> windows explorer)
4. Then select the game from there
5. Go to tools> folder options> view and uncheck Hide file extension, click apply and ok
6. then go back to the audio folder in the game and change the extension (.WAV) in sfx.wav file to .RAW and it should look like sfx.raw then press enter and the system is gonna show some crap just press ok and you r done
OMG it worked THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH xDD
But, hey. I have windows vista. Can you explain it? Please, bro?Quote:
