Unhappy

Bought an Audigy card, installed it etc. During Starwars Battle grounds I get pops and Squeeks from the left channel. Only the LC and only SWBG. Anyone else found this?

I've found that to be drivers in the past.

See if there are updated drivers on the net.

Hi Fosters,

Spent alot of yesterday searching for drivers. Appears that the drivers on Creative site are the same as on the CD. Just downloaded the latest Bios for my MBoard just in case. Going to spread out the cards in the system incase it's inerferance. Doubt it though.

Cheers,

unless they are shipping a different CD now the drivers are definitely *not* the same.

I too had lots of pops, crackles and other crap - must have been one of the first people to get an audigy :-) There were no drivers for XP either.

Installed the creative update drivers from the website, improved things but still not 100%

Eventually traced it back to the Highpoint Raid chipset on the motherboard - I had to bung in their latest driver which worked a treat.

Hi,

Guess they must have updated the CD. The control panel drivers tab gave the same date etc for whats on the CD and can be downloaded.
Have got an Intel 845 board, moved the sn-card to the bottom of the case away from the rest and hey presto. No more popping. One of the cards must have been causing interferance.

One happy Sith now.

Cheers,

P.
