Send a personal messsage to Tide One-Niner

When I open the client I recieve the following message "The OpenAL Audio System failed to initialize. You can get the most recent drivers here."

The link goes to a garage games site front page, but when I register for an account and search the site, there don't appear to be any drivers. I went to the MS site and downloaded what I could find related to OpenAL but still receive the message when I log in.

Anyone run into this issue and have a good place to find the drivers or know a way to get the sound to run? Thanks in advance.

-someone really itching to play w/sound

After downloading ANY drivers you need to shut down or restart your computer.

Along these lines - is there any way to play WITHOUT a sound device? It won't work on my school PC (cause there's no sound device - and I don't give a crap)
