Sound Issues

[dave tarmac 0]

When playing mp3s in Winamp, when there is the smallest bit of disk activity, the playback stutters, not too much but it is noticable. It did not do this with ME but when I upgraded to XP, the problem was noticed.

 

Two friends of mine have the same problems but they are using Creative cards (1024 Live!, i think) as opposed to the on-board sound i am using from my M7VKX m-board

 

Anyone got any ideas?

Specs ?

 

And are you using a highpoint raid controller?

Duron 850, 256MB SDRAM, 32MB Elsa Gladiac MX graphics card... No RAID

 

It does the same with Sonique and other players, including Media Player

or a VIA motherboard.. as far as I know, the new drivers solve all the problems known with the SB range of cards (though you have to for abit for the new drivers to be available for some models of the card).
