Help with my sound - please

[cwand]

Recently I've noticed that about 50% of the time I don't have any sound when I boot up. I can usually restart and my sound returns, but now it seems to be gone for good. I've restarted numerous times and it hasn't came back. What could be the problem? I'm using the SBLive Platinum.

Maybe you have some IRQ conflicts.

Have you tried removing the sound card driver and re-installing it? -kd5-

After installing a new HD my pc wouldn't pick up the sound card so I just changed slots and it worked fine after. Try that if all these other suggestions fail.

Sounds like an IRQ problem, just move the SBLive! Platinum to a different PCI slot.

Good luck!
