Thx for the suggestions... Still not working. 1 Winamp still has problem 2 There is no treble and bass control on this card. I must have a corrupt file somewhere... I don't know how else to find it. I really don't want to wipe my drive and do a fresh install! Normally audio is not so important... in fact I turned off all those annoying windows sounds ages ago.... but I am a musician and audio is quite important. Good thing my Cakewalk audio program still performs without distortion.
