Sound problem.
Hey.
I have a Sound Blaster Live 5.1, which has been fine for the past 2 years or so, however recently all sound has been crackly and distorted, but I know not why. I've tried the latest drivers and still had no joy. The sound is fine for a few minutes after turning the PC on but suddleny becomes crackly. At the moment I'm clueless as to what to do to find a cause (and hopefully a solution) so any help would be ace! (If anymore information is required please do post here, and I'm sorry in advance for leaving it out.) |

Is there a lot of crap running in the background? Ie, have you run spybot or ad-aware recently?

What I heard, Creative had crap quality on the SB Live! series and apparently they only last 2-3 years, just something I heard :rolleyes:

Creative cards are crap pretty much full stop. The Audigy 2 is good enough for games. How much is that nowadays out of interest? |
it costs about the same as an Nvidia nForce 2 motherboard :rolleyes:

My sound is fecked too sometimes. It happens when I play a game and use Winamp in the background.
When I play the game, Winamp stops playing sound after a few minutes in the game and a few minutes later the sound in the game stops too with a scrietching sound. After a while the game sound comes back after scrietching a few times again (sometimes), but Winamp doesn't and sometimes completely hangs. I have this problem since I reinstalled windows a few weeks ago. I put my money on a rotten codec or driver. |
