E-Prime Device Sound Error

You might try disabling the Sound device.

Alternatively we found that on some PCs the Sound device gives an error unless headphones or speakers are plugged in.... Even if the experiment does not use sound. So attaching headphones might also do the trick.

Hi all,

I just installed E-Prime 2.0.8.22 on a Windows 7 computer. The program is installed, but when I try to run an experiment file I get the following error:

Device name: Sound
Error: 0x00000385
Unable to create the directx object: 0x88780078

I don't have any sound files on my experiment and don't need sound so not sure why this is happening. The file ran on another computer with the same specifications, but not on 2 other computers.
