    When I join a server I get this error message in the console screen:

    Unable to initialize DirectSoundCapture. Trying waveln.MMSYSTEM032. The specified format cannot be translated or supported.

    Use the capabilities function(whats this?) to view supported formats. Unable to initialize wave input.

    You won't be able to speak to other players through a microphone.

    I'm not a computer wiz, if anyone would help or give ideas it would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

    I remember having some problems like that with my old sound card....what mmsystem...whatever thing...
    is your sound card full-duplex? (like can you listen to music and use the voice recorder?)
    maybe thats not the problem you're encoutering...i'm no tech wiz too

    I can listen to music but I have never tried recording where would I do that...

    I don't know much about my soundcard but it's always worked fine...

    I have exactly the same problem as Atlas (above).
    I'm running XP

    I know the mike is working, because I play w/ headphones, and I can hear my key clikcs & ambient noise in my headphones, and if I talk in the mike I can hear it fine.

    When I hold down the voicecomm key, a little speaker icon comes up on the right side of the NS screen, but no one can hear me. Also, When I press "tab", all of the oice-enabled players have little speaker icons next to their names, but mine does not.

    my $.02

    NEed a fix bad!
