Audio Problem After New Clean Install Of XP Pro
New to site! Need Help! Thank You! I installed XP Pro, clean, and wound up with an audio problem. If I play a CD in either drive, (CD-RW/DVD+-RW) audio skips & Pops or hangs up. If I play a MP3 from files it also skips & Pops but does not hang up.

I installed XP Pro, clean, and wound up with an audio problem.
If I play a CD in either drive, (CD-RW/DVD+-RW) audio skips & Pops or hangs up. If I play a MP3 from files it also skips & Pops but does not hang up. I Removed my sound card and used the sound off the motherboard. (SAME PROBLEM) I down loaded and installed the newest audio driver for my ASUS A7V266-E motherboard. (SAME PROBLEM) I've tried a number of different settings under Control Panel. (SAME PROBLEM) I uninstalled Media Player 9 & installed Media Player 10 (SAME PROBLEM)
I have the same problem while using WIN AMP, POWER DVD, WINDVD4.
BIOS PROBLEM maybe? Any help will be appreciated and remembered thru eons of time.

First, get the latest 4-in-1 service pack from Via Arena and install that. Restart afterwards.
Second, get the latest C-Media audio drivers. Install them and reboot afterwards.
I would also recommend that you d/l DirectX 9.0c from Microsoft's website and install this package as well. You have not mentioned wether or not you have the latest BIOS update for that motherboard either. Make sure you have the latest firmware from ASUS installed too
Also, since you have a third-party PCI sound card, be sure it's removed for testing purposes, also any other PCI card too should be removed for testing, this includes Modems/NIC's etc...
Since this board has a Promise ATA RAID controller onboard, are you using this in RAID mode or just the onboard ATA controller ?!?
I recommend disabling this for testing just to make sure

Thank you "Jmmijo" for your help. I'm now typing this out listening to my MP3s. I tried all of your suggestions but nothing worked until I removed all 5 cards. Audio then worked fine, so I started reinstalling one at a time.
Sound card 'no problem', Modem card 'no problem', USB Card 'no problem', Dazzle Video card 'no problem'. BUT!!! as soon as I inserted my "LAN" card, there it was. I went into the big city of Pahrump today and bought a new network card at wally-world, got back, installed, turned on, started listening. THANKS!!!

hi,
I have the same problem..
I am using on board sound (Original Intel D865GVHZ motherboard)
I have installed the latest BIOS update.
I only have a RealTek LAN card as PCI card and tried removing it, but that also didn't work for me.
I also have Linux installed and have same problem there also.
While using MPlayer in Linux pausing and playing again does the work. But not in any other player(also not in mplayer for WinXP).
Please help!!
