    I have in interesting problem where every time I revive my 6860 from hibernate I get a pop up telling if I want to format my E: drive. Problem is my E: drive is my Combo Socket drive. Though I have never used it before, the drive has all the correct and up to date drivers installed. Thoughts?

    Also I get an intermittent message informing me that my STacSV module has "stopped working". I know this has something to do with the Sigma Tel Audio media on the computer (at least that is what Googled). What/how to resolve that one??

    Anyone experienced both or one of these? I am running X64

    Thanks in advance!

    I am also having trouble with STacSV module stopping from time to time. Usually after I bring my laptop out of sleep mode or after a long session of gaming. I've tried looking into it but haven't had much success in resolving the issue. Also my IDT folder is corrupt and I can not access it on my hard drive. I am running Vista 64 Business also. Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

    I am getting the STacSV module stopping issue as well. It seems to be a windows issue that I am sure will be resolved sooner or later. I don't think it's anything important. Everything else works great!

    I get the same thing occasionally, but so far I haven't noticed that there's a problem - my sound works, pc works, no problems other than a message that says something stopped. Does it restart itself? I don't know but other than the message, there appears to be no ill affects.
