    I noticed that my external sound card (Creative Sound Blaster X-FI USB PRO) and an old Creative X-FI both stop working after few hours. I have a laptop running 24/7 playing Sirius radio. USB is set to high speed. In order to fix a problem I have to reboot the laptop.

    I read a little bit about problems with USB in XPS models. Any ideas how to fix it?

    Cheers
