Default SB Audigy LS crashes XP

My Audigy LS model #SB0310 sound card crashes XP HE when a sound is
played. Doesn't matter if it's Win Media Player, a midi player or
Windows playing a sound. Using driver 5.12.1.512. Anyone know what's
the problem? Thx.

screen on you? What do yo mean by crash?


Screen goes black, then computer restarts (like hitting reset). I
looked for a newer driver, but couldn't find one. Tried installing an
older driver, but driver setup said it "couldn't find" the sound card.

Sounds like a piece of hardware failing for sure there. More than
likely the sound card. Hopefully it isn't integrated so you can replace it.

I uninstalled the driver, rebooted then reinstalled it and, so far,
things are working ok.

Sound like you may have it sorted, but if you want to prevent your
computer from automatically rebooting when an error occurs (which
allows you to actually *see* what caused the error) then do this:

1. Right-click on My Computer and select 'Properties'.
2. Click on the 'Advanced' tab.
3. In the 'Startup and Recovery' section, click on 'Settings'.
4. Under the 'System Failure' section, uncheck
'Automatically Restart'.
