OK... I need a little help. I have put together quite a few PCs but am encountering a couple of wierd and really annoying problems.
1. The volume varies heaps randomly moving from high to low without me doing anything... really bizzare (and annoying)!! I used the card (SB Live!) in my previous P4 build with no worries at all, the speakers are Boston Accoustic and work perfectly with other devices.
2. When I try and install Fifa 07 or NFS: Carbon I am told that DirectX is not installed. I have DirectX 9.0c installed. Appears only to be with EA games as I am playing GTA: San Andreas and Company Of Heroes with few problems at all (other than the afformentioned sound issue.) CoH has randomly frozen a couple of times though...
My build is a week old, all drivers/BIOS are up to date:
E6600
ASUS P5N32-E Sli
XFX 8800GTS 320mb (Extreme Edition)
2gb Corsair XMS2 PC6400 C4
Silverstone Strider 750W
Sound Blaster Live! (from my previous PC)
If people have encountered, resolved or have good ideas for these problems help would be greatly appreciated!
