I have a old sound blaster live card and when i play music every so often i will get a distorted clicking sound. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and new of a way to fix it. Or is it just that the sound card has died?
 
Well I had the same problem. I tried re-installing drivers and such.

But it only finally went away when I reinstalled XP... go figure...

:confused:

did you happen to have a VIA chipset? it has been a known issue...

Yeah it is a Asus MB the A7V8X-MX what i belive is a VIA chipset.

I suppose i just keep playing with it the reason i wanted to get it working was i also have the old live drive2 bay and i was giving the computer to my bro so he can use it to recrod music.

Thanks for your replys
 
Ok i fixed it by just using the onboard sound card and useing the cretive sound card for input only.

I know it's dodgy but it is a easy fix.
 
Wow.... it hardly ever works for anyone anymore. :eek:
Where you using VIA's chipset drivers or the stock Windows ones?
