I thought I had this thing working nicely :jump: but I have 2 problems left. :crying: THe first one I can't kive with. After an hour and a half or so of playback the audio starts disintegrating. You can hear it but it is tinny and noisy. I am running an optical cable out of the Creative Titanium X-Fi card and into a Harman Kardan receiver. THis happens when listening to music for awhile and then I restart it seems okay - but The Dark Night is the first movie long enough to give me trouble - and I don't want to restart the computer in the middle of a movie.:hissyfit:

THe second problem would be nice to figure out but I can live without it. I can't get sound from the cable box to Media Center ive TV. I have the picture but it is not widescreen ratio and there is no sound. I have a hapaugue tuner.

Any help would be appreciated.

I think the audio portion of my problem is related to the creative titanium x-fi itself. Anyone else have this audio card and if are you experiencing problems? I found this jumping off point for info on the creative site.

This constant incompatability almost makes me yearn for a monopoly.
