<b>CPU speed and make</b>
1.1GHz Celeron.
<b>Sound and graphics card makers and memory</b>
Creative Soundblaster PCI.
<b>Operating system</b>
Windows XP Professional Edition.
<b>Graphics mode and resolution you're running in (OpenGL or D3D)</b>
1024x768 in OpenGL.
<b>Detailed description of the problem, and what exactly you were doing before the problem occured.</b>
While playing there are very frequent sound problems which involve the sound cutting short halfway through playing, then playing it again - it can do this up to about 6 times. I've played several other HL mods for many months and also latest releases, so I'm pretty sure it cannot be a hardware conflict.
It also tends to happen while using the commandmenu - in fact it almost always happens while I'm using the commandmenu.
