Problem with WC games on high-end PC

[Unregistered]

Okay I'm having problems running the WC games.

With WC3 and WC4, the FMV are fine (with minor skipping, which is bareable) however during the missions, the audio is totally stuffed.

With WCP the flight is absolutely perfect but the FMV are going too fast, like twice or triple the speed.

How can I fix these issues? Much help is appreciated.

I think if you run Direct X setup and disable sound acceleration it'll work

So, if I only give you a *little* help, it won't be appreciated?...

How do I access the Direct X setup?

Nope still doesn't work. I disabled sound acceleration and audio still skips in WC3 and it doesn't run the videos in WCP at all, it just hangs and I need to reboot. Hasn't hung in Windows XP in a long time.

Try using the *Compatibility Mode* in the direct access options

I've done that still to no avail.

for how many of the game files?

I don't know if it matters, but still...

Sorry?

Go into Properties for whatever file you may need it for, and change the compatibility-mode to Win9x (98 or 95 shouldn't matter, but try Win95 first).

I've tried that but no fix still.
