Tom CLancy's SSN problems w/xp and compatibility mode...

[Shearwater]

Try using VDM Sound, a sound card emulator.

The newest version is 2.10, but I recommend 2.0.4.
Both can be found here: http://www.phatcode.net/downloads.php?id=198

To run games with VDMSound, just use the installer, then right click on the game executable and select 'run with VDMSound'.

I hope that solves the problem

awesome. i will do that. i was concerned that this was such an old game that no one would have any good tid-bits of advice. (fingers crossed)

like i said, i've definitely narrowed it down to a problem with my sound config. the game originally required a soundblaster 16 card,so anything that runs old sound configs is certainly a step in the right direction.

this totally fixed my problem. it runs perfect now. Shearwater,you 'da man!

you sir, get a gold star for the day! and everyday for the rest of your life,if i have anything to say about it anyway.

I found a solution with the XP not working. I made the actual installer in the Program folder of the CD run in compatibility mode. It completed the install and game runs flawlessly. Try it and let me know.

Game has been running perfectly under Windows XP Professional, SP3 by running with VDMSound ver 2.04. But as soon as I press "W" upon completion of mission "Defense" it crashes back to Windows erroring that it has "encountered a problem". Has anyone had a similar issue? Is there a way to force the game to an unplayed mission?

EDIT: By opting out of the SSN option "movies play automatically " completion of mission 11 went right to the briefing screen for mission 12, and beyond for further missions, and no more crashes.
