Mixture it seems - I get the same problem and I'm pretty sure its the
drivers, but figuring out which is the culprit is hard this early on in the
life of Vista as most drivers are not as good as they should be, it could be
my ATI card, my e-SATA drive, soundcard, LifeCam, Zune, Bluetooth, Monitor
etc - anything. My view is that its either the soundcard or ATI drivers so
I'm stuck with the problem occurring now and then, in the meantime I mostly
just shutdown now.
