@MADS145584 There is a thread for this, called "FMODEx Error Code 79". Check in the Tech Support of Sven Co-op forums.

It didn't help with version 4.07. I've already found my own solutions by turning those Nvidia options off and binding a key to "cl_stopsound" and pressing it before map change.

I haven't had a crash for months now.

I have vista 64bit home premium and I have the same problem, however there is a temporary fix, if you have an nvidia card, then go to nvidia control panel, then manage 3d settings, then program settings, select Half-Life, then set Extention Limit to On and Threaded Optimization to On aswell.

Hope that helps.

No, because amxmodx dlls are not at fault.

It's no different than a user who has a clean install of Sven Co-op 4.07.
