So the Kyro 2 is not the problem. Perhaps it is with XP?
There was an update to XP that fixed several game related bugs (among other things). However, this update reinstates the security serial check and terminator technology, so many people that have less than clean serial numbers don't bother with this patch. I can't say that I blame them. Who wants to wake up to an XP that doesn't want you to boot, and recommends that you phone MS HQ for a new license agreement (and serial number)?
Anyways, feisar if you don't have this patch installed, and you have no reason to doubt the validity of your XP version, I suggest that you get the update from the MS homepage. If you do have doubts about the validity of your XP version, that can be solved as well. But I don't want to post here about how to do that. Forum policy on warez, if you catch my drift.
If none of this helps, please continue feeding us information. We might still be able to get you going. Perhaps it would be useful to hear which soundcard you have...
It's only after we've lost everything, that we are free to do anything.
