I've heard that there is some sort of compatability issue with the Pro2-A and Sound Blaster live sound cards? Does anyone know about this? My Pro2-A is on the way and I already have my SB Live X-Gamer. I will be running windows 2000 with it. Will I have problems with it? If so, does anyone know how to fix these problems? Is anyone successfully using both without problems? Thanks! :)

no problems here... Pro2a and the X-gamer are living peacefully together in my system

I did have a problem with mine, but for some reason it has dissappeared for the last 12 hours. I'm at a LAN party and my system has been on for 24 hours - had problems intially but after I installed even more patches things are running okay - for now.

Bad news, It just crashed again. I was running a Quake III FFA server, too! :( Sometimes it will crashing 15 minutes into the game, and other times it will crash 3-6 hours after playing games. What happens is if I'm just in the desktop it will freeze up the mouse. If I'm in a game, it will freeze, and I'll hear a long humming beep.

Looks like I'll be returning it for the Abit KT7 RAID.
