Sound Card options
This is a discussion about Sound Card options in the Windows Hardware category; Well for the past several months I have had nothing but problems with my damn soundblaster live. My computer would lock up every time I used my netword, and watched video or listened to video. I finally decided that I need to fix the problem so the first thing I did was take out the soundblaster live.
Well for the past several months I have had nothing but problems with my damn soundblaster live. My computer would lock up every time I used my netword, and watched video or listened to video. I finally decided that I need to fix the problem so the first thing I did was take out the soundblaster live. What do you know, no more lockups and the system is dead stable. I suspect its a problem with my dual processor setup thats incompatible with the SB. I'm running a supermicro p6dgu motherboard with 2 p2 400's at 504. Anyhow I was wondering what other sound card you guys would reccomend I use. I just need something that I can listen to my mp3's and stuff with that runs on a dual cpu computer. I would like something with a coaxial digital output for my Onkyo receiver, but if not then its not a huge deal.
