    This started happening yesterday, I was playing NBA Live 08, after a while, the sound will get distorted and becomes totally unplayable with low fps. I thought it was just that game until it starts doing that with any games, WiC, Bioshock, and even this Mahjong game I enjoy! I just recently upgraded my driver to 169.04. Would that be the problem? It didn't seem to have this problem until I did. Should I go back to 163.69, which didn't have this problem?

    Thanks.

    Are You suffering with Sound problem or Video problem?(Your thread title is not clear)

    Try to update your sound card drivers ,If it's a sound problem

    Uhm, I am pretty sure the title says sound problem. I have already updated the sound driver. The sound would still distort. I downgraded back to driver 163.69, still the same problem. It seems to happen the most in NBA Live 08. Game problem?
