I have a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz card I've used happily and successfully for years. Recently, I did an OS reload, Windows XP and ever since then I get a lot of static and interference with the sound quality, for instance when playing music and then performing virtually any other operation on the computer. I have the latest drivers installed, in fact have uninstalled and reinstalled them several times, even trying the old version I used to use successfully. I have also followed troubleshooting suggestions from the FAQs on the manu's website.
This problem makes it virtually impossible for me to enjoy the sound experience on my computer any longer. Does any one have any other suggestions I could try? It's as if ANYTHING the processor performs messes up the sound quality temporarily and intermittently. I'm a pretty high level user, build my own systems, etc.
Thanks in advance, Chuck
