The issue is definitly your sound card & or drivers. Did the drivers you installed come with the card?

Actually I am not seeing that card listed at dxdiag & the drivers in conflict appear to be your on-board drivers.

As a test does removing the card resolve the issues? Also notice the difference in the listings of dxdiag as well as the device manager with the card in & out.

Yeh The Drivers Installed Did Come With The Drivers Yeh If I Remove My Card Then Everythings Ok So What Can I Do About This Cause When I Went To The Bios I Couldnt Disable The Onboard Sound.

Is this the card:

http://www.microdirect.co.uk/Product...26&GroupID=283

I am a bit confused about its' specs & Genius no longer has any info on it.

I know it's tedious but the only thing that I can think of is to compare both dxdiag & device manager listings with & without the card. What is the difference?

You may need to experiment enabling & disabling certain devices & drivers.

If you can you locate the drivers that were installed with the card CD that would be the first thing to uninstall untill we can figure out what the conflict is.

Yes That Link You Give Me Is My Card These Blue Screens Happen At Random Times kk I Will Try What You Said.
