Battle for Naboo Error

FAVEditor0126 · July 21st, 2012, 00:45

I have old CD-ROM called Battle for Naboo which as you know came out in 2001. I have two PCs, one thats 98 and other XP Pro 32-bit SP3. It runs really well with old OS, but it sux on the XP. I've tried running compability mode (the properties version) and adjusting the color depth to 16-bit, but it doesn't work. There's no sound present on either situation that've tried. So now asking the gaming gods for help (banned or unbanned). If there a patch or whatever, I'll be grateful.

How do I get the sound active in XP? I know I have a sound card, but I don't know make the game link to it.

Here's the gaming rig I'm using currently:
Windows XP 32-bit SP3 (recently reformatted)
1GB NVIDIA Geforce 8400GS
4GB Corsair RAM
Seagate Momentus 250GB 7200rpm Drive
2-way Infinity Speakers from IBM Aptiva E-Series (best ones that MS gave, the speakers with todays computer have horrible sound)

Battle for Naboo? That ran perfectly fine in Windows XP if I remember correctly.

Go to the sound control panel thing, and make sure the sound device you want is the preferred one?

Hmm, the most likely culprit would be some sort of audio codec issue I think. So I'd try these two codec packs and see if it helps (not both at the same time).

Also update DirectX all the way and make sure your sound device actually works.
