Seems it is a problem with IRQ sharing/allocation (eyes glaze over at this point) even with SB16 emulation disabled (SB16 thinks it is an ISA card so is not expecting shared IRQ).

Also from Sir T I would be interested to know which PCI slot you have your soundcard in? What version is your BIOS (I'm sure I have the latest, but will double check). Do you have Via 4-in-1 installed? And Finally (phew) have you reallocated IRQs? Cheers - but answers in words of no more than one syllable please!!

ok my soundcard is the SB live 5.1,

not sure which PCI slot its in, off the top off my head its towards the right looking from the back of the board.

BIOS is the one from April ish

no IRQ reallocation

Via 4 in 1? not sure is this one of the progs on the CD

I'll check better tonight when i'm at home

Regards

Simon
