Sound card problem
After re-installing my whole system following hard disc failure, I can't get
sound card re-installed. System is an ASUS motherboard with Windows XP home (fully updated) and the card is a Creative Audigy SB. Problem is that although apparently correctly installed, I get no sound output. Looking into the card in Device Manager, all looks OK exept that the IRQ setting is 17 and I believe the BIOS only allows 0 to 15. Stangely if I uninstall the card and restart, it all installs fine and the card works (even with IRQ 17), but on restart the problem recurrs. I have tried going into BIOS and setting the card slot at 15, but this doesn't help. Any advice would be appreciated.

The OP did not specify here that he deactivated SoB in BIOS before installing the Audigy card. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada)

Sound card problem
If it's a PCI Card try a different PCI Slot.
