Just encountered a strange problem. Each time i load an mp3 the wave volume sets to zero. i adjust it in the volume properties and listen. I load another file and the sound zero's again but the volume properties show no change but when i click on the wave slider the sound returns. Strange. Any thoughts??

It seems to me that board has a realtek sound chipset.. There should be an updated software package for that sound card. It should fix you up..Quote:

Just winamp does this ? or other 'stuff' & when you say 'latest drivers' for your sblive ... would that be the 'latest' from creative or from windoze update ?
yes, no,and yes :-)Quote:

Just an irritation really. I'll check if a system restore works.

As its an 'irritation', an FYI for you then ... ;) & as I am confus-ed by just what 'yes' means in answer to creative or windowsupdate drivers ! :D
If you look at the drivers for sb live on windows update & then you look at the drivers at creative, you'll find there's a difference ! The windows one intoduces a lot of the 'support' services (all those stupid control panel extensions & such), I've been confus-ed by this myself previously ... A 'creative' rant
If you do have devldr or its variant devldr32 'floating about' in task manager, my guess is that's your issue ... :)
Sorry if this is late,
these threads over at the Winamp forums may be of help:

Most likely it is just a matter of selecting Directsound output in the output plugin section of the Winamp preferences
