FD crashes if sound card removed about fastdoom

[SpitFire-666]

Hi - this might be related? These two settings (set as sound FX device) in FDSetup cause FDOOM to lock up during launch on my rig. It won't even respond to CTRL ALT DEL.

• PC Speaker (1bit, 11KHz)
• PC Speaker (PWM, 6KHz)

Selecting normal PC Speaker works fine (I selected the others by accident). Cheers

What are your rig specs? The PWM mode abuses the system timers, maybe the system is not compatible with this idea. It works fine on my systems.

Wow it's been over a year! Unfortunately I encountered this again, must've forgotten to run fdsetup.

So I guess what's frustrating is trying to guess the sound card params in FDSETUP, saving and hoping for the best, only for FDOOM fall over at the sound initialisation part, requiring a hard reboot:

Occasionally it will crash, with an error about sound card, which is fine as I can easily try FDSETUP again. Most of the time though, it gets stuck.

I think Duke3D let you test your sound card in the SETUP which was nice.

I'm using UNISOUND to setup my sound card, which magically works for all the usual games like Keen, Jazz, Wolf3D.

Thanks again!

I've uploaded a new release, can you test if it still crashes? Thanks!
