YEEEEEESSSSS!!!!! I've made it!!! Or better, ehm...., someone else done it for me. I found that the problem is *pheraps* linked to nlite, but I'm not sure. Anyhow, the problem is caused by file Imaadp32.acm, that is missing!!!!! Download it (google) and put it in C:\windows\system32! Et voilà! No need to reinstall or install the game/codecs. Oh, all credits go to him: http://forum.justgamers.de/fear/thread.php?threadid=684&sid Hope this will help someone in the future!
