Same issue here, when I start ArmA I get a pop up that says "Bad version of OpenAL32.DLL

I've downloaded the latest and correct version of OpenAL, the help file points me to it. Here is the error I get below

This is the file I downloaded.

Of course I install it after, and it says "Installed sucessfully" But ArmA still has the same error upon starting and I still have no sound, this is driving me batty.

Is there a certain place within ArmA's directory that this DLL needs to be put??

I'm using Windows XP with an Audigy 4 soundcard

Have you both tried the -dsound startup parameter

place it with your Arma shortcut

While I do get sound with the -dsound command, it is all messed up. The general sounds are ok but the radio seems like it is almost in hyper speed and is constantly being spammed. I'm not sure what gives.

I'm more wonder why on earth this OpenAL thing doesn't work. I'm installing the version they say to install in the ArmA wiki help area.
