Audigy FX Problems
Howdy!
I bought a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy FX 5.1 Sound Card SB1570 a couple of years back and I never have been able to get it to work correctly in Win 8.1 or Win 10.
It'll work just fine occasionally after a shutdown, but if I reboot again it'll stop and may not work for twenty more reboots.
If I turn the volume all the way up I can very faintly hear it working. Sometimes there will be a loud humming/crackling sound.
I've disabled the onboard sound in the BIOS, as well as all other audio drivers in Windows itself. I've gone into the properties and checked levels, and even changed the default format from 24 bit to 16 bit. I've tried uninstalling and using RealTek drivers instead.
Anybody out there have any ideas on what could be wrong?
