Hittade det här & det verkar vara bra tips. Men har ingen koll på hur man genomför det rent praktiskt. Hur uppdatera man tex sina nätverkskortsdrivrutiner?
If you have clicks and crackles, check ALL the devices you have installed. Put all cards out except the 2496 and GFX and try again. Bad PCI drivers for network cards etc. cause repeated crackles in intervals of a second or so. Try without network adapter installed. Disable all optional devices such as USB and such in BIOS. Check if you have proper drivers installed for all your devices, microsoft drivers that come with windows do often seem to work fine, but cause problems at other devices like the 2496 Audiophile.
Check wether all your IDE devices run in UDMA Mode.
Install all the mainboard drivers, even VIA boards shouldn't be a problem with drivers properly installed.
The Delta Audiophile 2496 is a great Audio Card if you have a clean system. But it relies on the system to be clean! You wont want to drive a Ferrari in a Rallye, would you? Consumer cards have good perfomance under all circumstances, like unclean PCI Bus etc. Pro cards are optimized for performance, not for compatibility with bad devices like old network cards, tv cards, old cdroms, wrong drivers installed etc. !!
Just dont give up, rethink, which device could cause the problem?
Great Sounding Card, nice to play with Giga
