Soundblaster XiFi EM Problem

AtlanticP · 29 Sep 2008 at 02:03

Quite simple really,

Soundblaster X-FI Extreme Music
Was working fine then the Sennheisers went quiet and now I have no sound. Windows sees the card and when media player is doing its thing the sound bars etc move but still no sound.

Any suggestions please, card is about 3 months old if that from the bay

Could this be driver related (Have reinstalled the drivers but I know that the EAX cant be a proper pita.

Thanks In Advance

K Thanks Guys,

Will stick it back in and give it a go. Gutted it went down but would be great if its something silly like you have both mentioned.

Back shortly to report

happens to me if it moves in the pci slot when power is on a reseating in the slot fixes it.

Yer I am thinking I could make it fit slightly better in the case as I get crackling and a white noise if I move the card even slightly. Just cleaned my case out as well so may make this my next job. Bloody cards lol :mad:
