ATI X600 Pro Audio Probelms

[abulkiewicz]

I purchased an ATI X600 Pro a year or so ago. The card was working
fine, up until recently. I began having problems with the card, and
ATI suggested to update the drivers. That seemed to work fine as I was
then able to watch TV without problem for several hours. I shut my
computer down, and then upon turning it back on, I now have fuzzy,
distorted audio while watching TV. I tried uninstalling and
re-installing drivers with no sucess.

Anyone have any ideas? ATI dosnt seem to be very helpful...

Wipe out the cards existence in every essence, remove the drivers, in the
hardware manager disable and uninstall it, do an auto registry cleaning AND
a disc defrag. Then shut down the machine, as well as the power switch on
the back of the machine, which is on that power supply. Keep your skin on
the internal steel of the case while removing the card. Card out, turn the
machine back on and do another registry cleaning. If there is one, download
the latest driver for that card.

Now shut down the machine again, and reinstall the card in a DIFFERENT
SLOT, not the same one, and switch the machine back on again, and install
the [new] driver. See what happens, if it's no good then probably some level
of meandering static electricity has corrupted the card, and you would
therefore need a new one.

....hope this helps, and good luck. Report back.
