Audio hardware failed to initialize!

[Thomas and Ginny Bank]

On occasion, when I start up Cakewalk Guitar Tracks I get the message
"Audio hardware failed to initialize." The problem was intermitant but
lately it's been getting worse!

Sometimes rebooting the compute solves the problem. Most of the time I
resort to reinstalling Guitar Tracks.

So I say to myself, "Update the device drivers." I have a Turtle Beach
Montego A3D sound card (specially built for Dell computers.) Turtle
Beach says go to the Dell site to get device drivers, and you guessed
it, they aren't there.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Thomas,

Turtle Beach seems to have the drivers, as far as I can tell. Check here for
the drivers... http://www.voyetra-turtle-beach.com/site/default.asp

Also, try deleting the following two files from your Guitar Tracks
directory, then restart Guitar Tracks...

TTSAUDDX.ini
AUD.ini

You can use Turtle Beach drivers, but you will get no support from
Turtle Beach.

Try downloading drivers ver. 1187 (and not 1160), though they are still
beta.

I finally gave up on Turtle Beach (Want to buy a Pinnacle? Cheap?)
Their "latest" drivers have been BETA for almost a year now. And I couldn't
use them because they made my system crash even worse then the previous
release.
