This is [H]; get used to people ignoring you so they can go gawk at the same useless threads that show off new toys like the FW900 and Westinghouse 37" threads in Display. Then don't forget about the picture threads in here. I hate it too but if you don't like it, don't come here. Also do not pay attention to the "## viewing" for forums. I'm sure that the number is inflated by bots or something. There will be no activity for hours but 100 people viewing the forum.

As for your issues....Boot into safe mode and uninstall the drivers then run CCleaner. Then reinstall the latest drivers and see how it goes.

thanks man I did that already and the latest drivers kinda suck I also did a dual boot on another HDD and have Vista on it and I still get the cracking sound in BF2142 and sometimes it will just make a load ringing sound and my card will not play sound untill a restart but with XP I did do the Driver cleaner and some other things I dont know what is going on with it I just think Im gonna need to do a clean install with XP and get a new card maby... and a new PSU I really want one my 480 can handle what I have by spec but I want more power it is always good to have I just wish there was a fix for this.. and it seesm to only happen in BF2142 but the BSOD happens random even when im not in game.. and I am sorry about the other post I made I just have been installing reinstalling and I even installed Vista on my backup drive after formating it and the prob seems to be worse on Vista... damn MS... I love PC game I think it is the only way to play I just dont get why this prob never happend on my other system I built but agian Im sorry about calling u all assholes and stuff you guys have helped me out and I have helped some of you out so thanks man for at least trying that is all I ask for... but yeah do U think I should get a new PSU and just go buy a new X-fi and take it back if I get the same prob??? I may do that moday or tommarow if I can make it to the store.. anyway thanks agian and please more help would be nice

Afaik

Vista + Sound + nVidia = rare BSOD
Vista + XFi + nVidia = often BSOD

NVidia is suppoded to release new drivers to fix this problem i think...
