Hello everyone,  
I am learning a bit about SDL and finally wanted to put some sound to my program.  
I’m using the SDL\_mixer, like shown in the lazyfoo tutorial ([http://lazyfoo.net/SDL\_tutorials/lesson11/index.php](http://lazyfoo.net/SDL_tutorials/lesson11/index.php)).

Program compiles normally, without errors, but as soon as I start the \*.exe I get a windows error (0xC000007B).  
The problem definitely lies in the Mix\_OpenAudio call.

Really didn’t find something by looking for it, so I have to ask.

Thank you in advance,

Asrar
