Everthing on that system is fine other than the Sound Blaster card. Get a Turtle
Beach card, or a Hercules III. Sound Blaster drivers are horrible. They cause so
many problems on systems.

I used to have a Live and a Audigy card, since switching to a Turtle Beach card
my system is absolutely error free. It has not been that way since before I got
into the Sound Blaster series.

Just my two cents.
