hi,

there seems to be a delay in me pressing play ,then about a minute later the sound will come out,i can turn my sound card off,and then it sometimes works,its like it freezes,is it because i got the sound card through fire wire,

Is there a latency adj? I use a firewire audio interface with vista 64 works perfect.

You need to tweek it

hi,

it doesnt do it all the time,just now and again,everything will not play sound,i find if i reset media options in explorer it works,and restarting the sound card,
by everything i mean windows media player
itunes
youtube
any sound that comes from the pc
then its like i reset and it comes on,

i know what you mean about the latency,

what music programs do you use with vista 64,

thanks

I use Cubase 4.5 and Sonar 7.02 Producer.

I see your using the SP66 By Cakewalk. Are you using Sonar as well?

Also make sure you have the latest drivers installed for the sound card. You may also want to go into your Bios and disable onboard sound if your MB has it. There could be some internal conflict over the sound devices fighting for IRQs (doubtful, but you never know).
