Sound Problems While Playing Games

[prosorcerer]

Hello,

I have been having sound problems while I am playing games (no matter which).
While playing a game, the sound suddenly stops and it won't work only until I quit the game...
I can hear songs and websites on my PC with no problems, and for some reason I can't hear the sound of the game after about 5-10 minutes of playing.
Rarely, the sound suddenly comes back and I can hear the sound of the game, but it stops after another 5-10 minutes...

What should I do?

My PC: 3.00 Ghz Intel CPU.
Foxconn Intel Motherboard.
512 MB RAM.
GeForce 5700FX Video Card.
Realtek Sound Card.

**Edit: I downloaded the latest drivers for both my Video Card and Sound Card and I have them installed on my PC.

Hey prosorcerer, I am no expert but check your codecs or lack of. I have had similar problems with my games in the past. I had acemega codecs installed and it caused problems with my games

Hey Dude was just thinking, if you are using a nocd crack that can also effect the game. Try a differant crack
