Default Sound bug - sound repeats when u hit an object

hey,

when playing cmr4 whenever i hit a wall or solid object, i get a sound bug that just constatly plays the sound of the car hitting the object. it just keeps repeating even though to the post race menu, only when u exit to the main menu/service area does it stop. its really annoyin, makes it kinda hard to hear ur co-driver sometimes

Ive read in another post somewhere that sugested updating ur sound drivers to fix the glitch, but ive installed the latest drivers and no luck

any 1 with helpful info plz reply.

thnx


sound card & drivers:

intergrated Nvidia Nforce soundstorm 5.1 (only using 2 spkrs)
Driver: nvidia 6.14.431.0

I am experiencing a similar problem, and I also thought it was the sound card drivers. After updating my drivers, I'm still experiencing the looping sound issue.

Sorry I can't help.. just thought I'd show that this isn't a one-time problem.

Angry Sound Crash

I have the same problem and it seems to start about 1/3 of the way into the stage and from then on the sound is very bad, hash / white noise and stays in menus ect until game exit.
