RocketRaid 1640 + Sound card problems
Hi,
I’ve just purchased a RocketRaid 1640 controller but have run into a problem with my sound card. I have 4 x 80GB SATA hard drives attached to the 1640 in a RAID 5 set. My sound card is a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy. Other specs: OS: Windows XP Pro CPU: P4 3.2GHz (800FSB) RAM: 1GB (DDR400) SM: ABit IC7 MAX Sound: Creative Sound Blaster Audigy The problem is whenever the hard drives are reading/writing data the music playing via the sound card becomes very crackly and distorted making it impossible to listen to. I have installed the latest sound card drivers but this has made no difference. The 1640 Controller driver and BIOS version is 2.0.3.0 (latest). I've tried increasing the AGP/PCI MHz ratio, tried using the onboard sound card instead, even tried configuring the hard drivers as ATA66 instead of ATA150. None of which made any difference Is there anything I can do to stop the RAID controller interfering with the sound card? Any help will be most appreciated! Thank you, Gerald |
