Xonar DG 5.1 soundcard sound crashing and stuff

[iixwh3l4nxii]

Well I installed this nice new soundcard but every day i'm getting about 3 crashes with it, it's also crashing my game like San andreas, this never happened when I was using my onboard sound now I get problems like sound repeating, say for example I fire a gun and it sounds like *boom*, all I hear is *bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-* continuously untill I restart my computer, it happens a lot and it's REALLY annoying.


Any suggestions? I got the drivers off Asus's website, I just got Xonar DG 5.1 drivers, they don't have drivers specific to model number, but the model number is:
90-YAA0K0-0UAN0B

I'm using a Turtle Beach x11 headset with it... although I had the problem with my x3's aswell, I doubt it's a headset problem though.


Help?

make sure my chipset drivers are up to date. also turn off the onboard sound.
model asus ds model sound card for the drivers.

when you say "model asus ds model sound card for the drivers." what do you mean?
and yes of course i have disabled onboard from the bios.

Also, chipset? my mobo's chipset is an 946GZ, I think it has the most up to date drivers

Try setting GX mode to the exact opposite of whatever its set to now. A few games are REALLY sensitive to the directsound wrapper.

I know older drivers would tend to not clear the sound buffer if a program crashed, leading to the same sound repeating until a restart. Make sure you have the latest drivers installed.

If all else fails, you can give the Xonar Unified drivers a try and see if that works.
