Sound becomes distorted after some time

I use a Creative Fatal1ty HS-1000 USB headset and after playing some time (usually after about 1 to 2 hours) the sound suddenly becomes distorted. It's hard to describe but the sound becomes metallic ,digital, sort of robotic...This is very annoying as it forces me to restart the game and I only play long MP missions online and after restart I'm forced to sit the mission out.! More often then not I continue playing 'deaf', not a solution either! It is solved when I unplug the headset and plug it back in, but then the sound in my game is completely gone!
I have searched a bit and found a post on another forum wich suggested a firmware update, tried that but got the message that newer software was already installed.
I am looking for one of two solutions;
-A complete fix, whatever this might be...
-A way to get the sound back ingame after unplugging and plugging the headset back in.
My hardware is;
Creative Fatal1ty HS-1000 USB headset
Xtreme Gamer soundcard
Windows 7 64b Ultimate

Had the same thing, its firmware related issue. Might be also drivers. Update them.
Also, i had this problem when i was at Win7 beta (the very first one). Same drivers and firmware in Vista, worked fine (still works). Make sure u got the right OS drivers.
Thisis really confusing, wich are the correct drivers and firmware? I only found these:
http://support.creative.com/Products/ProductDetails.aspx?catID=437&subCatID=865&prodID= 17806&prodNam...RODFAQ_17806,VARSET=CategoryID:437
and windows7 ultimate 64 is nowhere mentioned....

  • HT201232 My I phone is restart after some time. Some times find out its off then if I press Home   Power button then again re-start. Some time after coming apple logo it take auto restart ...display become blue color.

    My I phone is restart after some time. Some times find out its off then if I press Home + Power button then again re-start. Some time after coming apple logo it take auto restart ...display become blue color. I have restored through I tunes and got I cloud backup. But stll have same problem.

    Try once again to restore using iTunes, but this time without using a backup, to make sure that this is not software related.
    If the phone still restarts on it's own, get it checked, this might then be hardware related after all.

  • Urgent : MDB stops listening to the queues after some time  !!!

    Hi,
    I am using OJMS with OC4J 10.1.2 and db 9.2.0.5. I have a web application which send messages into the queue very frequently.
    But the problem is the MDBs stop listening to the queues after some time (1-2 days) and no more messages will be dequeued from that point.
    All these messages will move to the exception queue after their expiry.
    But the dequeing agains resumes after restarting the OC4J !.
    I guess, at some point mdbs are either becoming busy (locked ) or some exception occured while dequeing, hence they stop listening to the queues.
    Please throw some light on this issue as it is very crucial in my project.
    Regards
    Prashanth

    I've noticed this lately as well, with my iPhone 4. I couldn't confidently pin it directly on any particular iOS update, but my iPhone used to automatically connect up via Bluetooth with my Prius's handsfree feature, and now it doesn't. I work with a CE-based device at my job, with Bluetooth capability, and I used to test out that feature by having it discover my iPhone. This no longer works either.
    What I have found (not really a solution, but it does work and may be a clue for Apple) is that if I simply go to the Settings app then the General -> Bluetooth screen and let it sit there, it will pair right up with my car within a few seconds. Bluetooth is always on, and always says "Now Discoverable" at the bottom of the settings screen.

  • SA 540 drops wan connectivity after some time interval

    hello guys,
    I have problem.  after a certain period of time (ranging from 2 minutes to several hours) the unit keeps dropping the WAN connection, making the unit unaccessible from the WAN side. The strange thing is, that when the connection is dropped, the unit is perfectly accessible from the LAN side, the WAN LED is still on, status info shows the WAN link up, and packet trace shows broadcasted traffic on the WAN interface, so only the directed communication to and from the ISPs gateway (configured to fix IP) seems to be blocked for some reason. When this happens, then plugging the WAN cable to the Optional WAN port enables traffic again, but it is also dropped after some time, and then only power cycling the unit restores WAN connectivity.
    please suggest me as soon as possiblethat how to fix this problem?
    Awaiting for valuable reply.....

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • How the files are decreasing from RBS storage after some time i delete docs from document library, where shld I check the settings for this?

    HI
    I created a web application and configured  rbs storage ,
    I uploaded documents (for ex: 18 number)
     after uploaded  documents ,  and observed the RBS storage folder, number of files are increasing (39 number) , its working fine
    and also  I run the querys to check the rows increasing or not , (when I upload new doc rows are increased its fine also)
    select count(*) from alldocs
    Select count(*) from AllDocstreams
    but when I delete some docs from document library ,
    1)the doc itself deleted from document library
    2)when I check the rbs storage  there is no number of files are decreased(its still 39 files ), its same as  before doc deleted from doc library
    after some time I found the number of files are decreasing from RBS storage folder in sql server,
    here I want to know the how the files are decreasing from RBS storage  after some time, where  shld I check the settings for this? and how I control on it
    here how I know the settings for cleaning up orphan BLBOS how  these deleted BLOB
    adil

    1. WHen you delete the file from Sharepoint, it is still present in Recycle bin. This is a default setting in sharepoint for 30 days. Once files are deleted fro Recycle bin, it can also be delete from RBS
    2. There is a RBS cleanup job which deletes files from RBS. for more info check

  • My Iphone 3G stopped booting and failed to start. After some time, I have restored the Iphone OS using Itunes (ver 4.2). Itunes restored it successfully, but the Iphone didn't responded and remained the same.except apple logo, nothing is displayed.

    Hi,
    I have an Iphone 3G.
    Its 9 months old mobile and it has OS 4.2 in it.
    When I am accessing wi-fi, suddenly the display went-off and then I was not able to start my phone again.
    Later I tried to restore and update the Iphone using Itunes.
    I have updated the Itunes.
    Using hard-reset, I tried to restore the OS and did the same successfully.
    After installing the same over my Iphone 3G, I didnt recieved any intimation for completion of the process, besides, I was not able to start the mobile even I have reset the OS.
    when I push the wake-up button, I am able to see the Apple Logo and after some time, it goes off and remains idle with no more display.
    I tried to reset OS twice, it remained the same.
    Can any one help me here with this issue.
    I am not even able to figure-out the cause of the problem.
    Thanks in advance.

    I downloaded the Microsoft Autoruns package and ran it.  There are no programs in the LSA Providers tab, and Apple's Bonjour is the only program in the Winsock Providers tab.  I also did the "netsh winsock reset" and rebooted.  It didn't fix the problem.  Any more ideas?

    i just brought a apple protection plan as my phone warranty is going to end in a day, after entering the protection plan code and my phone serial no its showing an error message "technical error try after some time", is there any solution for that?

    When i bought a new iphone5 in Inda after using it for three days lock button was not working properly and it was warranty claimed and exchanged from apple service center in India, for the same phone I want to extend the warranty but its showing a error message is there any solution?

    Here is some information on the applecare +:
    http://www.apple.com/support/products/iphone.html
    It appears that you have to buy the applecare within 30 days of buying your phone - you said that your phone warranty is almost over, so when did you buy it??? That could be the explanation for the error.
