Sound Card Problem, or Driver Problem? Games crash, when they didn't befo

Not sure what the problem is, but seems to be a sound problem of some sort. I have just re-installed Vista 64. And now when I try to play BF242, the game crashes before I even see any kind of gameplay. It also instantly crashes when I click on the audio options tab. I have installed the latest drivers from the site. I have even uninstalled them, and launched the game without any drivers, and the game runs perfectly fine, but only without sound.
But I've been able to play BF242 before, but it would evenutally crash after a while, but at least I was able to get into the game. So knowing that Ive been able to play before, and it played without any drivers, I dug up some drivers that I know I had working at one point when the game was playing. And it still crashes before it gets into the game.
So this makes me wonder, is this really a driver problem or a soundcard problem?
All sounds are perfectly fine elsware, music, movies, OS tones, web, etc. Crysis runs perfectly fine. Company of Heros Crashes, Quake Wars crashed about 0 mins into a game. Team Fortress 2 runs perfectly fine. Battlefield 2 instantly crashes.
Here's my specs:
Vista 64 Ultimate
Asus P5W DH Deluxe
Asus nVidia 8800 GTX
4gig Corsair XMS2 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel
Powersupply Antec True Power Trio TP3-550 550W ATX2V Power Supply with Three 2V Rails
Sound Blaster x-fi fatality (whatever the one that comes with the front computer interface)
Any help would be great. I'd hate to go buy a new sound card just to try it, unless I had a pretty good idea that it was the issue.

I think I found the problem. It was the physical card itself. I pulled my old Audialogy card out of my old machine, and swapped it. Now BF242 runs.
And mine never went to a black screen, and had to hard reset. It just dumped right to the desktop with a message "bf242.exe has stopped working."

    The problem that I can not find the sound card driver for windows 7 and the windows installed the driver but the sound is not pure although it's higher than the sound when i connect the speakers to my Built in card
    I am not satisfied with the sound when i connect the speakers to creative li've card and i can not install the driver for windows 7
    I hope to fix this
    Thanks

    Does this problem only occur in certain programs? Because I have a similar problem with my sound suddenly dropping without warning. But it only happens when I'm playing music in Windows Media Player. If it does have something to do with the media player then I suspect it could be the "WOW effects plugin." I hope this helps, or at least narrows down your problem.

  • IMac sound card/back-up drive issues???

    I've just taken delivery of my new 27" iMac....what a sweet piece of design!!!
    I've had to order a 6-pin to 9-pin adaptor for my sound card (Saffire LE) and I've just noticed there is only one 9-pin port in the iMac. Does this mean I won't be able to have my back up drive and my sound card connected at the same time???? That would really suck not having my Mybook set up to automatically backup.
    Previously I was running Logic through a macbook pro which allowed me to use the 6 pin port for my sound card and 9 pin port for my back up drive (WD Mybook).
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Cheers

    Will the devices and the iMac do the rest in terms of recognising what is plugged into what and running everything correctly?
    Sure. That's kind of the whole point of a daisychain-able, hotswappable format, which firewire was designed to be from the outset. But as I said, your mileage may vary as not all devices play as nice as others. You just have to test it and figure out which order plugging them in works best for you. Also be careful with sleep settings on your computer because sometimes when waking up from sleep, audio interfaces on firewire don't like to wake up, or they get annoyed if there's something else on the buss.. And then also be mindful of the performance you get. Some users experience audio dropouts and crackling when the audio interface + whatever else are connected in a certain order, which is fine after swapping things round. You might want to ask another question here stating exactly the gear you use in the subject line, because there are sure to be other users that specifically have the same interface, imac and ext drive as you, so you'll be able to benefit from their experience on how to get it working trouble free.

  • Are there any sound cards with best driver support for Arch?

    I was wondering if there are any sound cards that have the best driver support for ArchLinux? I currently own a Creative Labs X-FI Platinum Edition. The main reason I like the Platinum is that has an interface you can plug MIDI and Audio ports into. It seems to me, however, that Creative is the worst company to support Linux drivers. If anyone has any opinions, please feel free to comment. According to all my research, ALSA sound drivers are the most supportive for sound. Am I also correct in this assumption?

    yeah, creative sucks. go with m-audio. they support linux unlike creative.

  • NVidia video card- Lightroom freezes at startup, stalls, crashes when switching modules [Windows]

    Issue: Adobe Photoshop Lightroom freezes when you start, crashes when you switch between modules, displays blank screens in Slideshows, stalls frequently or runs extremely slowly. 
    Solution: The nVIDIA nView Multi-Display Technology software (also known as nView Desktop Manager) is known to cause these symptoms. If you have this software installed, please see following  Technote for resolution of problem.

    Okay, I ended up replacing nouveau with the nvidia proprietary drivers.  I did a full update of my system, which I hadn't been able to do in over a month because of catalyst's conflict with xorg, and managed to get X working (sort of).  The only issue is that once X starts, and brings me to slim, the keyboard ceases to respond.  If I turn the numlock on before X starts, it turns off as soon as X starts.  Ctrl-Alt-Delete doesn't do anything either.  Not really sure where to go from here other than to switch to vesa or something
    EDIT: I tried installing the beta driver as well, but nothing changed.

  • Games crash when RAM cache goes over to swap.

    I'm not sure if this is the right subforum, but it was the most relevant available.
    I have 6gb of RAM, which is plenty for me even though i use alot. There's an issue however, and that is that many heavy applications such as games like Garrys Mod or Elder Scrolls Online under Wine crashes when the RAM cache exceeds those 6gb. It's supposed to go over to SWAP, but heavy applications simply just crash instead which is very annoying. I do not know why it just crashes, since i always have at least 1500mb of free swap available, and since it's just for cache and not reserved memory that should be fine. Sometimes an excessive amount of cache is used, and i'm not sure what is using up all of it which makes me have to reboot my computer to be able to play games without crashing which is very annoying.
    Here's a pic and a ps aux of one of those times where excessive cache is used for unknown reason

    Not a fix, but got my system to be more stable atleast.
    Wrote a bash script that simply clears cache every minute. Very dirty, but it's better to have a stable and slow system than a system that crashes from time to time.
    while true; do
    echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
    sleep 60
    done
    simply execute as root and you're good to go.
    Will continue to try to find the root of the problem though.

  • Apps crash when they load maps!

  • HT4740 How can I avoid or solve the problem of Final Cut Pro crashes when trying to Show Events Library?

    When I try to Show Events Library in Final Cut Pro, it crashes each time. Please tell me how do I work around this problem?

    Try creating a new (temporary) folder and putting all your events in there - then launch FCP X.
    If you can open the Browser, then it's possible one or more of the clips in one of your events is corrupt. Close the app and move the events back into their original places one by one (re-starting FCP X each time). This will help you find the event which has the corrupt file in it.
    If isolating the events has no effect, I suggest you trash your preferences.
    Unexplained faults like this can often be fixed by clearing out FCP X's preferences (for some reason, they get knotted up from time to time).
    Download Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager (free, simple to use, and perfectly safe, both to download and use).
    http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
    With Preference Manager, you can backup the Prefs when FCP X (or any of the Apple Professional Applications) are working normally. Then when either of the applications are acting strangely, Trash the Preferences, then Restore from your backups (just a mouse-click).
    If you trash the prefs and don't restore them, you will need to manually restore all your FCP X settings again, so it's a great idea to backup Preferences from time to time when FCP X is working well, then your backups are up to date.
    Doesn't fix every problem, but it fixes a lot.

  • ITunes and Gapless CD Burning.. iTunes Problem or drive problem?

    I've been trying without success to burn a gapless audio cd of a concert. I lost my original burned CD and am trying to burn another one, however this time around, im on a different Mac (before I was using a 1Ghz Emac G4 now Im using the 08 MacBook Pro w/superdrive)
    Ive been reading about this issue which has lead me to no solutions. I have everything set correctly as I did before (set the album and tracks to Gapless and have the gap between tracks set to none when burning) but still get a "hiccup" between tracks.
    One thing I did learn is that in order to burn a Gapless audio CD, the burning program and the drive need to support Disc At Once (DAO). I read that iTunes does not support this, but I know I was able to burn gapless successfully before. Here are the specs for my SuperDrive according to the system profiler..

    My iPhone Wifi is greyed out.
    In Uruguay in Cellular Center (+598 2 903 3333) that is where I buyed it told me it has no solution, it´s a problem of hardware accepted by Apple, that Apple change the phone in this cases, but that they can´t change it by another new one because their warrantee is 3 months and I bought in december, 2012. It cost me US$ 1,250 and I want a solution because I saw in the Apple web that iPhone warrantee is 1 year and I am still covered by it.
    I have the invoice dated December 24, 2012.
    Do you have any solution to my problem?
    It is hard to believe that a so expensive iPhone has a life of 6 months.
    Do I need to take my iPhone to anywhere they can solve its problem?
    Thank you so much.

  • Why has Cards app started showing euros at checkout when it didn't yesterday?

    I have been using the Cards app on my iPad2 the last few days to send cards with no problem. Today I am trying to send more cards but at payment area it keeps showing the euro symbol instead of the dollar sign. I have location services on and always answer that it is USA in the address area. What's going on and how can I correct this?

    I had a similar issue.  This was my solution:
    WARNING - this will delete previous cards and you will have to start from scratch.
    Uninstall the app from your iPad2 (touch and hold the icon until it 'wiggles' and then touch the x in the upper left corner to delete)
    Reinstall the app from the App Store.  (If you look under purchased apps in the update tab, you should see it listed or search for it.)
    It should now be set to US$ again.
    I hope this helps!
