Lockups

What will screw up a lot is if you added a sound card to a mother board that has on board sound. Sometimes the on board sound is still enabled when running from an installed soundcard. Go into you bios and verify that your on board sound is disabled.If it is not, then disable it. See if that works for you. If still you have problems, go thru device manager and make sure that the only sound drivers are for your soundblaster. If only soundblaster exsist then remove the hardware from the OS (just make sure you have the sound card drivers handy) and reboot and let windows auto detect the sound card. Try it that way first. If that does not work then add the newest driver.This problem might also be detectable thru a DXDiag report.
