Hi guys and girls.
I am having a recurring problem with sound/black screen since moving from WinXp Pro to Win7Pro.
Following on from a thread I made in the gaming forum I have been unable to fix the same problem. With only one extra bit of information. If I wait long enough at the black screen it will recover, akin to something is taking 100% CPU resources then releasing it 5 mins later.
I have also started playing WAR and I get almost the same thing BUT I can still play. I will hear a click, then no sound from game or ventrilo, I can continue playing without any lag and all of a sudden the sound will come back. i will then have to listen to the last 5-8 mins of ventrilo chat until I have caught up, I am then "live" again and can talk to other people on vent.
Anyone had this sort of error I have reinstalled many times without any change. If I reinstalled WinXp Pro I will have no problems. The main problem I think is that the sound driver (X-FI Gamer) isn't signed but nor have Creative released an update for a long time
Any advice please?
