Ok, so i've had this problem with my speakers crackling and popping and notice under my Device Manager there is a Multimedia Audio Controller (under "Other devices") with a big yellow questions mark and the system is sometimes discovering it trying to load drivers for with the "New Hardware Found" message on startup.
I've got a Creative PCI card that is already recognized under Sound Controllers so i can't figure out what this is finding...
when i let it try to find a driver it's bringing up CH type manufacturers....so is it finding the joystick out that's attached to the soundcard or what??? and is this a conflict associated with my scratchy speakers?
possibly i've got the wrong IRQ assignment that i need to change in the BIOS...that's a fuzzy area for me but i'm researching it thanks for any light BT or anyone can shed on this.....
this is only my opinion and it's usually not my opinion very long because I CHANGE MY MIND FREQUENTLY
