Xbox doesn't play most game soundtracks or other sounds, help!

[ssmangrove]

I have a couple of Rainbow six 3 games for Xbox, and rarely does the theme music, loading music, or other audio play. No longer do the bad guys make "dying noises," nor is there loading music or conversation among the "terrorists" like there were before. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :)

Sounds like your hardware. Did you get your system checked out?

Sounds like his hardware? There are no sounds so how does it sound like his hardware? lmfao jk jk

Check your wires, check your wires, check your wires, if that's not the problem, check your disk, check your disk, check your disk, if that's not it, does the sounds work on any other game? If it's isolated to that one game then it's the game not the hardware and should probably buy a new one or get the one you have fixed... I'm just skimming the surface here, i'm no expert.

Thanks for the replies :) They are a definite help

I just rented a splinter cell game today and all of the sound works. The Rainbow six games are all clean and two of them are new, but sometimes the sound goes. Every once and a while, a grenade will be audible. Gunshot sounds are almost always audible. Occasionally a hostage will scream "help me," and sometimes he will get about halfway through help "hel---."

The Xbox WAS sitting in the top of my closet for over a year; maybe it accumulated some dust. I'll see what's up.

BTW... splinter cell = great fun on multiplayer coop :D:D

Step up to 360. Trade that old dusty, clunker in and come play with the big boys!

Yeah you might want to get all that cleaned out inside there, but really step up to 360 you won't be disappointed.
