[PC] - Game wont boot - Engine Error: Couldn't initialize sound
Whenever I boot the game this error message comes up:
Couldn't initialize sound.
Please make sure you have a sound playback device that is enabled and properly configured.
Failed in: MilesBankGetStatus
Miles output follows:
Streaming source r2\sound\general_stream_patch_8.mstr is not a Miles Stream.
I have tried many different supposed fixes and none have worked so far, if anyone knows how to help please get back to me as soon as possible.
Hi @Lenog07
Can we try the following if you have not?
- Repair your game via the EA App - Repair (Library > Tile Dots > Repair)
- Verify the game in via your Steam library
- Clear EA App's Cache (Top Left Menu > Help > App Recovery)
- Connection and Advance Connection Guides
- Check for other applications that may be limiting EA App or Game performance
- Run the System File Checker tool, then Check for Windows and GPU updates
- Check Drivers, Default to High-Performance GPU: Troubleshooting Graphics issues
- Restart your device in Clean Boot mode first then try again.
If this continues would it be possible to get a DxDiag file?
