Trying to find cause of cracking/popping issues with ASUS Xonar D2X.. Seems to be latencey that causing it. Using DPC latency checker and strong latency is occuring. Using device manager to isolate cause of latencey.




Should I disable these?..

or maybe you should install it correctly

when I installed Xonar it gave me a problem on startup with clash of drivers from Xonar and Realtek audio drivers so I disabled realtek drivers.. Is this linked to these..

What are they?

Those look like chipset drivers...
that arn't installed....

well, it's better to uninstall previous drivers before putting the new sound card, so there are no conflicts.
and disable audio card in the BIOS

also try reinstalling your chipset drivers, as mentioned above ;)
 
will it change any programs or anything i have installed or will it just affect the drivers?

you won't need the on-board audio drivers (Realtek), you will need the Xonar drivers though

Hey, ASIO.. wtf?

Is it in effect constantly, or something I need to enable?
 
Sorry, talking about ASIO (audio streaming input/output) on Xonar D2x..

install all that stuff
the idea is not to have anything with a yellow question mark on the device manager :)
 
yup done that. ASIO is what bypasses windows kernel mixer and allows the soundcard to connect directly to the software I am running thus reducing latency, which is still my main concern and the reason I am trying to sort out the drivers..

I have no yellow question marks now. Will test for a while and see how I go. I post the ASIO thing in computer audio forum.

Thanks for ye help ieSLIe and Joseph :)

mua... muAA... mUAA... MUAAHAHAAAAAAAAA!! I think I solved it.. well actually you guys solved it..

NO MORE CRACKLING OF SOUND!!

My new test results.. turns out the 'Multimedia Controller' was the drivers for my tv capture card which is installed on my mobo but for which the drivers were not installed (thanks to my forgetfullness at my re-installation of vista ultimate 64bit)..

So much stress.. subsiding... fee... feeling... sle.. sleepzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

:D

THANKS!
