OP
I also tried everything before I stumbled on this simple solution. Get rid of the SB Live! POS and get a new sound card. I purchased a TB Santa Cruz and have never been happier. I know there are probably better cards out there but I have not heard a snap, crackle or pop since I ditched my SB Live.


Ureeka! that its....lol
