[Openal] C#, OpenAL Dependency Issues

[aconstantin]

Hello again,

Having to inevitably reinstall Windows, I found myself surrounded by
dependency issues when trying to re-run my VC# app using the Tao Framework.

At 1st, I ran into this :
InnerException : {"Unable to load DLL 'alut.dll': The specified module could
not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)"}
Souce : Tao.OpenAL

The apparent reason (which I found, again, with forum help) was I didn't
have alut.dll installed, and I needed to include it in my \System32 folder.
This solved the matter.

Now, I seem to have similar problems, because an alcIsExtensionPresent()
call for AL_EXT_EFX now returns ALC_FALSE. 
I've downloaded & ran oalinst.exe from Creative, which I thought would solve
the problem, but it didn't. 
I also saw that the Tao \lib\OpenAL32.dll and \lib\wrap_oal.dll differ than
that of Creative's.
I replaced the ones installed with these ones (hoping for a miracle), in
\System32, but again, with no effect.

I know my current sound card (X-Fi Xtreme Audio Notebook) supports this
extension...I just don't know what other dependencies I've omitted...more to
the point, where exactly is "alcIsExtensionPresent" looking...

Can anyone shed some light on the matter ?

Thank you,

Alex.
