LEFLAW NEEDS HELP WITH WINXP or he will kill someone

leflaw	Date: December 14, 2003 @ 12:03 PM Friggin machine all of a sudden ( for the last two days) plays everything at too fast a speed - i.e. evry song sounds like a 33 rpm L.P. played at 45 rpm - mickey m ouse sound you know- and I can't figure it out. I have Pro tools throug its own breakout box and card, and that is OK. Otherwise everything else goes thru soundblaster Audigy card. This affects video playback in all players , i.e. Winamp, WMA
Thaspian	Date: December 14, 2003 @ 12:08 PM What is it, just audio or video too? Is it when you play video with audio in it that this happens? I'd first suggest trying another player, and uninstalling and reinstalling the latest Audigy drivers.... that card has more bugs than anything.
Thaspian	Date: December 14, 2003 @ 12:16 PM Nimo Codec Pack. It usually fixes things, do a full install of it. It CAN screw up some games though. " id="73960">Also try, the Nimo Codec Pack. It usually fixes things, do a full install of it. It CAN screw up some games though.
cybrgost	Date: December 14, 2003 @ 12:20 PM Check your Sample rate, try other sample rates till it hits the right sound your looking for. If you have a sample rate too high or too low it will speed up or slow down.

TameasDust	Date: December 14, 2003 @ 4:03 PM maybe one of the following will help Leflaw at this site http://www.techsupportforum.com/computer/forum/23-1.html turns out the problem is with the sound card and not xp itself ... maybe a new soundcard?? one person at the site had only problems with 44Khz mp3's but not any of another format ... will keep diggin though
TameasDust	Date: December 14, 2003 @ 4:13 PM http://www.pouet.net/topic.php?which=791 deals with sync problems somewhat could need to be reinstalled the sound card that is ... as listed at this site http://www.ripnet-uk.com/guides/sbaudigy.shtml other problems with the soundcard listed here http://www.sudhian.com/showfaqs.cfm?fid=14&fcid=1 i hope one of these helps ... let me know if not i will dig deeper
Slurgi	Date: December 14, 2003 @ 7:06 PM You could try burning all important information to a CD and just reformatting. Fixes everything (but timely/pain in the ass)
mtekk	Date: December 14, 2003 @ 9:31 PM Leflaw: The mostlikely cause of the 'issue' is probably in with the EAX that is supported by the Creative labs Audigy card, what you need to do is turn off you EAX effects and then everything will be back to normal.
Veracohr	Date: December 15, 2003 @ 12:23 AM Probably somewhere you have a sample rate set wrongly. I don't know enough about Windows systems and programs to offer more help, though.
pog	Date: December 15, 2003 @ 1:49 AM Just as an experiment to see if the problem is with windows or the card, the first thing I'd do is go to a media player like winamp, and have a look in the preferences, and see if it outputs to the default audio card or Audigy. Try changing it so winamp points straight to the soundcard, restart winamp, test. If bypassing the default windows audio setting clears the fault, then at least you have a temporary fix. Possibly even an update coming up to fix it. Another thing you can look at is... have you installed any new programs recently ? Anything could be suspect, for example to install the nimo codec pack if you already have divx installed can cause conditions like this.. or worse. Next, (and prolly the most obvious) you might try updating mainboard, and soundcard drivers, also updates of microsoft, direct x, firewall, and anti-virus if you havn't lately. Hope this helps.
victorsskull	Date: December 15, 2003 @ 9:58 AM get rid of it and go back to windows me
Elu	Date: December 15, 2003 @ 4:47 PM Windows ME sucks and blows....hehehehe. XP runs great once everything is reloaded and upgraded.

gdZiemann	Date: December 16, 2003 @ 5:42 PM Damn. I wanted to see Leflaw go after someone

mtekk	Date: December 17, 2003 @ 9:41 PM I had the same thing happen to ma sort of... except I was using the EAX stuff that came with my SoundBlaster Live Digital 5.1 card, to have 'fun' with soliciters, a few summers ago. and one day it got stuck on 'chipmunk', then i relised that the EAX effect was still on. On the thing about ME, Me is a POS windows release to fill in the 98 SE - XP time gap.

robbydadrummer	Date: March 24, 2004 @ 3:30 AM Yeah, first thing I did with my SoundBlaster was disable the EAX. I don't like having all that effects crap in addition to what I might be working with in Sound Forge.
