The oddest thing. The sound keeps 'dropping out' after a while. I've only just got it up and running from plain (reliable) old XP Pro and now have a dual boot XP Pro and Vista home premium. (spit over your left shoulder when you say that!)
I've checked all the jacks and even run the setup disk again, for a while it worked but then - gone.
I never had a seconds bother with just XP but I'm committed to Vista now and couldn't bear the thought of re-installing all the stuff I have.
Anyone have any thoughts?

Hi,
You could try vista trouble shooter to see if microsoft has a fix,
Is the sound giving the same fault as this in XP?
Just one other thought have you installed the sound drivers from the Vista CD, driver CD,
The reason i ask is my mobo came with different driver CDs, One for XP and One for Vista!

Oh boy. Of all the stupid things!
I just bought a new Skype phone and plugged it in the USB hub. haven't had time to do anything more. I just thought, well, why not and pulled the USP plug out and the sound nearly blew my head off!!!
Sound is perfect. It's a good quality Altec Lansing outfit.
What do you think that was and can it be overcome?

Thank you indeed Pete! ::)
All i need to do now as soon as I get my defenders is to find out how to use the bloody phone without plugging it into the USB socket!
If I had a pound for every good idea I've had in the last 75 years, I would be - - - - -
no worse off than I am today.

Well, I'm 81 now so it would have been a wasted life if I'd had no sense of humour. ;D
Mind you, my late wife used to have to say to people who seemed a bit mystified by what I said. " Don't mind him, he's got a warped sense of humour." She may well have been right.
Anyway, thanks a lot for the link which seems to be the answer.
And, by the way, it's OK to carry on breathing now.
:P
