Winamp stops playing media after a few seconds in Win2000

I've got a Diamond MX300. I've tried the default drivers and the latest reference drivers I could find, and Winamp still won't play MP3s. Any ideas?
 
Yeah, I reinstalled winamp. I've tried just about everything. Oh well, I've been wanting a Soundblaster Live anyway... 😉
 
i had this problem when i tried installing the beta vortex2 drivers (silly freakin' me). after much pain i purged them and got back to win2k native and all is well (so far, knock knock).
 
Another bump. Windows Media Player won't play MP3s either. It works for about 30 seconds or so, then it stops. After that, nothing works. Neither waves or MP3s. I haven't tried a MIDI file yet. 😉 Any ideas?
 
I had the same problem with a Vortex2 card. I fought and fought with the stupid thing. Tried Win2k drivers, beta drivers, you name it. Never could get it to work. It'd always die after trying to play multiple sounds. Like starting an MP3 and then clicking menus to make the noise. Or even just scrolling through the start menu too fast.

I gave up on it. Sold the Vortex2 to a friend for his wife's computer, and bought a SB Live! Value. No problems with that card. That's the thing with creaf, they're still in business developing drivers that work.
