only bips and noices with sb5.1!

[Guest]

specs... (I think... I'm doing this for a friend)
asus a7v (not ddr)
thunderbird 11xx mhz (not athlon)
sb live! 5.1 value
sorry but I dont know what speakers he has...
and a IBM 60gxp 40gb...

So... my friend has just bought this system and put it together all by himself... now to the problems....

In almost all games his sound disapears after a few minutes... all he can hear is a blippering and stuff... (like an old all braked up nintendo... like they sounds after a few too many kicks) He has tried everything... changing pci-slots and fallowing Creatives directives on their FAQ... (yes they have one for this problem..)

I know you guys know everything about computers (and internet pornography) so I'm laying all my (his) fate in you...!

Has anyone had a problem like this and solved it? The only thing he havent done is downloding the newest drivers from asus maybe that helps? what do you think?

Thx <--- I just saved my self a 0.00001 sec by not writing thanks...

LOL! There aren't any Thunderbird CPUs that are not Athlons =)

It's supposed to bee one of those old architecture athlons with the second level cache, hmmm, "off-die"... not on-die like the "new" once....
