Scratchy sound XP Home & Creative

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.video (More info?)

Right, we've tried some more things now so will update on the problem.
We've disconnected the live drive, which made no difference at all. We
tried all the other PCI slots, which also made no difference and
there's nothing wrong with the speakers or cables.

We've now swapped sound cards. I have the Platinum card in my system
and it's working perfectly (so it's not the card that's the problem).
The Soundblaster card that I used to have on the MSI motherboard is now
back on my husband's PC (where it was originally installed when I was
using the motherboard, with no sound problems, so not a motherboard
conflict) and we're getting the scratchy, screeching problem again. The
only thing we can think of now is a software conflict somewhere...any
ideas?
