Dangerous Waters Audio popping a lot

Okay. A possible clue:

The status messages on the second sound options screen says the following:

Sound Card Reporting no 3D Hardware Buffers. Reccomend Updating Drivers
Could not create hardware 3D sound. Performance degradation possible.
Created 6 3D Buffers, Recommend 4 minimum Buffers
Created 10 Special Effect Buffers. Recommend 4 minimum Buffers.
Created 10 Voice Buffers. Recommend 10 minimum Buffers.

My sound card drivers are fully updated.

Is the problem just that my sound card is old and can't handle the audio for some reason ? It seems to handle the audio for a LOT more complicated games than this one.
