Audigy 2 Platinum Ex probs!!

sci0x

I've had this prob for months now and I've finally decided to do something about it now coz Creative are so slow sending down a replacement sub-woofer (which i assume is the problem).

Ok heres the prob..
None of the speakers will work or play ANY music and after spending E500 on the speaker system im totally ****ing furious. You know those volume things that come with it will when i roll the volume down to 1 and 2 there is a buzzing noise coming out of the speakers.

As I move it up to 3 4 5 volume there is no sound. Then more buzzing the higher I go after that. It is only buzzing and no music i play will work, sometimes you can faintly hear the song. There is no geeks out of the sub-woofer. Before it might leave out blasts of noise but now its after giving up completely.

I downloaded the latest drivers so its not that. I uninstalled all the software and installed agian so not that. I reformatted to see if any difference and after instaling the software again it worked for a day and it wont work anymore after that. Its the same if i uninstall all the software and install it again everything will work for a few hours but it will all give up again in the next few hours.

I desperately need any help you can give before i slam the speakers off the wall and crack the sound card in half. Thanks

Is this yours?

Ill assume that you have it connected via the "Digital Din". Make sure that the pc volume on the digital output is at maximum all the time and the volume is only adjusted on the speakers

Thats all I can think of at the moment.:dunno: Probably no help to ya

Sir Random

Does the mobo have an onboard soundchip?
If so, did you disable it in the BIOS and uninstall it's drivers/cp before installing the Audigy card?
