Hey guys, I've been reading up on many of the other threads for this problem, and the ways they have been solved, but it seems that none of the answers apply to me, either that or I'm not looking hard enough. I just moved to a new house and took my set up with me. Everything was fine A-ok perfect. Then one day I was watching a movie on my comp and the sound fuzzed a bit, then dropped completely, came back on, then went off. I tried the connections external and internal, nothing was wrong everything was fine. Then I ran troubleshoot and it took me to the device manager andI noticed a yellow question mark with an excalmation point inside it, so I assumed this was the problem. I then went creatives site and looked for a controller driver, nothing. I think I mat be going about this wrong, so I decided to ask the people who know what they are doing, you guys ^^ I'm hoping you can help me out, having no sound, and then sometimes it'll work for like 3 mins, then go off is making me insane
I hope this information will help resolve this before I have to spend money
