Well, after posting the other day that I was having no problems with my X-Fi card, I'm now experiencing the weirdest thing.
Every now and then, whilst watching videos, I'll get a brief but very loud "scream" noise which lasts for about two seconds. It's totally random but not very frequent and is really quite a disturbing noise.
I'm on Vista x64 with the latest Creative drivers - is it likely these are to blame? So far I've only ever noticed it on videos with AC3 sound so there might be something there too.
I need to upgrade the drivers on the gf's Vista x86 box soon as she's still got some of the early Creative drivers from a year ago which, whilst they work, cause sound problems after hibernation. I'm almost scared to in case she starts getting the same issue.
