[kj] Play dead

[Darren A. Peace]

All fine advice apart from 

 

Remove the CMOS battery for 10 mins

 

I'd only do this if a) you have made accurate notes of all your BIOS
settings and b) are keen to spend hours reoptimising things and getting any
RAID arrays & ESATA drives working again.

 

Reason I went for the BIOS PCI allocations first is because this recently
sorted an unrecognised tape drive issue.

 

Best of luck!

Try all of the following:

 

Go into Control Panel, Sound (or similar depending on Windows version) and
make sure the sound device selected is the add-on card

Remove the device entirely from Device Manager, re-install drivers, make
sure they are the manufacturer's, and the latest versions

Disable the device in Device Manager

Make sure there is nothing plugged into the 

Remove the CMOS battery for 10 mins

Update the firmware on the motherboard and sound card

Try another PCI slot

Reinstalling windows is totally wac for an issue like this (!)

Google the issue you have including the sound-card and motherboard model
numbers, see if anyone else has that issue with that hardware.

Cheers, but yes we went through that. It still insists on 'reverting' after
every shutdown.

Apologies if you're past this, but : is the original soundcard integrated
into the motherboard? Even if not, I'd take a look at the BIOS options and
see if you can physically select the PCI slot with the new soundcard.

iTunes...a totally invasive piece of annoyance! That little ficker tried
taking over every sound device on my pc. It is now gone!
Windows, still insists on using its own primary s/c after installing the
delta 1010, with the original s/c no longer on the drive. Reformatted and
all :[
Bloody annoying at the beginning of each recording session.
