Sound Looping?(1)Category: Technical SupportMay-1-2013 1:43 AM PDT (10 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
I have a issue with my game in that when i click on something in auction house...or hit something, Be it a monster, loot chest....or just press an attack in general....it will make the sound for the particular attack/button as though i have pressed it 4, 5 times. And basically lag/loop. I have tried to fiddle with the sound setting both in game and on my computer to no avail. It is starting to become very frustrating..

Any tips would be appreciated.

StronKangaRu,

As MIssCheetah has pointed out, drivers are the first thing I'd suspect here.

Can you post some information about your computer so we can see your hardware and what driver releases you're currently using? You can find this information in the Direct X Diagnostic Tool:

Click on Start
Click on Run
Type in: dxdiag (In Vista, type dxdiag in the search field)
Hit Enter or OK

Click on the Save All Information button at the bottom, and create a dxdiag text file, and copy and paste it ALL here.

StronKangaRu ,

Your audio drivers are the latest Dell has for your model so I'd probably stick with them. Not being at all familiar with this model, is it possible for you to disable it in the device manager? I'm curious if a different on-board sound device would then be used and if so, if it had the same symptoms you've described in the game.

I also found a link on another forum discussing this sound device and Alienware models that use it. Several issues are mentioned and I'd suggest reading through it to see if any of the suggested fixes might apply for you.
