bad Audio on soyo mb? need help please

[chille1972]

First symtoms came as a lot of my apps that run on the task bar in the background dissapeared, then games started to freeze the sound was like a cd skipping, i now dissabled audio onboard now games work fine but apps still missing.

could my problems be caused by audio hardware failure?
has anyone ever heard of anything like this?

Is my audio bad hardware bad? if so the mb is still under waranty.

thanks

the same cd skipping sound then freeze has happened to me on numerous occasions.(mostly durin playing games) it seems the longer my computer is on, the more prone it is to freeze(even after rebooting). at first i thought i just had too much crap on my hard drive so i formatted it but the problem still remained. it doesn't seem to happen often anymore. it was like my computer had a cold or something. maybe the sound we're hearing was a sneeze.
