ok im using windows 7 and an auzentech hd home theater card. this sound card cost as much as my 4890 lol...

this is pissing me off. i know how to fix it every time but its still REALLY annoying. every so often, intermittently, my sounds will be crackling like no other... the way to fix it which works EVERY time is go to output devices, disable my speakers on the auzentech card then re-enable it.

is my card breaking or do i just need to reinstall windows? ive been having all sorts of crappy problems like ventrillo locking up on me, mw2 only loads one map correctly before locking up, the next match alway slocks up so i have to restart the game after every map...

i have no idea why it does this but its stupid and i hate it.

it's probably audiodg.exe that is causing the problem...it's the audio manager that was added in vista and it is very buggy when it comes to drivers and add-in cards

here's a link to a post in the windows 7 forums that has more info
