Fellow stalkers,
After an intensive search on the internet, I've come to different solutions to the SwapChain problem, i stood tranquilized as i saw that deleting soft_oal.dll, disabling EAX and using "generic software" would fix the problem, but it didn't. I have a crapload of addons (i really don't want to list them right now, but if necessary i will), none of them ever conflicted, gave me a crash nor anything alike, since i carefully merged those who needed it and took measures to ensure compatibility. The only crash that plagues me since the beginning (even with a fresh install) is the SwapChain unhandled exception, always accompanied by InitSound2(). The crash is completely random (which makes me save very often). And i've also used different xrSound, OpenAL32, eax, wrap_oal and soft_oal dll's from different "sorround" addons. None have helped. Now i stand helpless as I'm unsure of what causes the issue and i simply can't seem to find solutions online. Therefore i come here to plea for help. Please forgive me if this has already been fixed/resolved/answered, i usually don't let those slip on my searches but it can always happen.
Oh, and i use DX10, smooth 60 fps with occasional stutters (engine related), even with addons that weight on graphical processing, so performance is not a problem. Crash log follows.

Many thanks in advance!
