I've since uninstalled and put the Live back in and the sound is only coming from the LEFT* channel this time (maybe I was mistaken from before, I can't be sure) Anyone have any suggestions? As you're probably already aware, the cause/solution to this can be anything from something ridiculously simple to something involved - driver issues, mobo incompatibility, etc. First, since you mentioned you tried installing an Audigy, make sure ALL traces of it are gone. It's a bit more involved than just doing "remove" fom the control panel. There are ini, dll, & other files, registry entries etc. that get still get left behind. Creative has some good tutorials on how to totally clean up in their knowledge base. This also applies when un-installing that Live card. If you know this already and have a list of all the files you need to look for, look at the ridiculously simple stuff, primarily the physical connections between your soundcard and the speakers before beating your brains out with more esoteric issues. Those 1/8" jacks aren't all that robust, the connections could be bad or and the patch cords/plugs yo're using could have a bad wire. You mentioned the problem seems to have switched sides. Have you tried swapping the wires going to the speakers to see if the problem re-swaps? Have you tried different patch cords? What about whatever amp you're using for the speakers? Do you know for a fact that it's good? |
