welp i've finished with this and here was my solution:
i created a web page with the desired wallpaper as background and an embedded muted infinitely repeating audio file.
no further delay when an audio stream starts and no speaker popping when the audio shuts down, except when the pc...
following the cmedia driver installation it promptly requested a cmedia device... which i do not have exactly. so... it stopped installation. basically it didn't go as well as it could have :)
so... i've made some progress. i've set windows media player to start when the system boots, running in the background at a zero volume with a short looped clip. the problem is gone. the receiver is constantly receiving a data stream, so no popping, no audio delay, no audio problems at all...
did not work. i notice the pop is when the audio signal from my pc stops being received by my receiver. it goes from showing dts to not showing it, then it goes from 5.1 to 2.1 and there is a pop. the signal from the pc ending definitely causes this issue.

welp i have been playing around and have gotten nowhere really.

patriot 2gb ddr2 800
razer barracuda ac-1 (sending audio to my receiver via optical audio)
evga 7900gtx
rosewill 550w psu
windows xp sp2
basically 2 issues, the main one being whenever a sound stops playing (windows...
i've never had to rma anything from evga, have had multiple video cards from them including 6800gt, 7600gt and 7900gtx.

i don't want to step on any toes :) it's not a "for sale" thread, but i'm thinking about selling a pc either as a whole or parting it out and was looking for some pricing guidance. i didn't see a pricing guidelines forum and was wondering where i could post without making other members crazy...
