Having done what it has told me everything appears to be up to date all sound systems are enabled and in working order and yet still I can't play this file. Any ideas what can I do?

Can you play any files successfully? If so, have you played any files of that type before? Marcus L. Rowland Forgotten Futures, The Scientific Romance Role Playing Game

What is the actual error message? Marcus L. Rowland Forgotten Futures, The Scientific Romance Role Playing Game
