[No Longer] Need Help in Chennai testing Card in another PC
I have sound card troubles.
As my Mission NXT PC speaker system has been slowly dieing I hadn't much bothered with my expensive sound card, but decided to move back to it, in preparation for new speakers, last week.
It didn't work. It is a RME DIGI96/8 PST. It used to give me superb sound when I had my PC connected direct to the HiFi back in London, which is not physically possible here.
At first, all I got from the card was noise. I removed it, dusted it off (it was dirty) and replaced it in a different slot, reinstalling the drivers. This time I got sound, but jerky, stuttering sound. It is like it is playing the music at the right speed but jumbling it.
Side issue: I have occasional problems with the built-in sound, where it will produce a farting noise (if you'll excuse the expression) like a "stuck" CD.
Back to the RME... this is it's third computer. It's second computer was a Compaq whose motherboard failed about a year ago. It is now a Gigabyte 945GCM-S2L in the compaq case, with an Intel Core 2 Duo E4600 2.4Ghz chip.
What I need, Please...
(Apart from any other diagnostic ideas)
... is someone in the Southern end of Chennai that will test my RME card in a PCI slot on their PC
