i have a strange problem.
i installed beyond diviniyu (BD) and installed the latest patch first. (1.47)
(i disableled my virusscanner)

when i played i couldn't hear any voives or music.
after installing the latest ogg vorbes codex.
i had music and sound again.
then for no particular reason after playing for a week, the sound was gone again! also no voices.
so i deleted the game completely, installed it back , patched it, installed the ogg vorbis again.
but no music ever since.

not even the menu bar at the beginning of the game, were you can select sound /music/effects volume, don't play the effects or the music.

If you run dxdiag (click Start | Run, type in dxdiag and hit Enter), does it report any problems? There is a test you can run on the Sound tab. You could also try lowering or disabling hardware sound acceleration there.

Try deleting the sound.cfg file in the 'Beyond Divinity' folder. The game will recreate it the next time it starts.

aparently switching to a lower level of acceleration, did the job.
thanks @Raze! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
