Ive got a SBlive! Value card and i've had it for a while with no problems and the last few days it seems to be killing my Quake 3 sound, when I pick up armour it cuts out for a sec like it cant play more then one sound at once. Also with mp3's its adding what seems like extra bass to them and it distorts some songs a bit.
Ive got Cambridge SoundWorks Speakers but my guess is that its the soundcard.
Any help is appreciated thanks.

What drivers are you using? I've been hearing about a lot of problems with the new LiveWare! 3.0 drivers. Personally I'm getting a lot of popping and hissing of the 3.0 drivers. If you've switched to the 3.0 drivers and the problems started then, I'd recommend reinstalling the W2K default drivers and kissing EAX sound goodbye until Creative gets their drivers fixed.
