Ok, I found out the cause of all my hangs and problems in my computer was my sound card. It is a sound blaster live value. I get these wierd lockups. I tried to change the pci slot it was in but no luck. I also tried reinstalling the via drivers 1 by 1. Still no luck. I tried changing the irq but windows wont let me, even after I uncheck that box. So I decided to put it aside and use the on board sound on my mobo. It all works fine until after 20 minutes or so of listening to mp3 or something it just goes out. All I get is a high pitched nasal "weeeeeeeee" that just keeps playing. Anybody know what could be wrong. I am running the latest 2.5 bios from MSI. Is this sould blaster problem with all via chipsets. I really need help. I would just get a new sound card but now that diamond no longer makes sound cards and aureal is out of buisness I think. Who's card do I by. If anyone can give me any advice of help I would be extremely thankful.
