I have found one minor bug with my GTXP sound card -
Whenever I play games I use headphones (so I change the sound card settings to such) but then when I listen to music I change it back to my 2 speaker setup. Sometimes it won't go one way or another. It will just stay on its current setting for a while and then will take a big dump on my head (some sort of error). Anyone have any idea whats going on?
other specs -
a7v333
xp1800
asus geforce 4 ti 4400
512 pc2700
intel? NIC

that should about do it...

Interesting. I would definitely drop Hercules a line. Perhaps a future driver update will solve the problem. I haven't run into that problem because I plug my headphones directly into my ProMedia 5.1 control knob thingy.

I will try plugging my headphones into the breakout box and see if the same thing happens to me.

I just tried what you described and had no crashes. Weird. Maybe just download the latest drivers or reinstall the drivers you have and hope for the best.

Oh, dear. I have the same drivers which support 7.1. I have a 5.1 setup. The new drivers, as well as the old drivers, allow me to change to whatever I want. Can't you just change it back to 2 speakers?

there are 2 diff versions of the GTXP - mine is the 6.1, I assume yours is the 7.1. The 7.1 drivers make it so mine doesn't work but if you notice I started a new thread and I solved the problem. Thanks though.
