Suggest you try a 100% swap of sound and video cards between the 2 systems,
just to try to eliminate the hardware from the mix of possible causes.  If
the problem stays with the system, and doesn't migrate with the cards, try
checking MSCONFIG to see if you have any unnecessary apps running at
start-up on the 950 that aren't running on the 400.  If you still don't have
an answer, let us know tomorrow, and we'll try to figure out where else you
can go from here.
