Creative sound card drivers for XP SBLive 5.1 suck . Period.
So the sound starts going all funky...sped up, slowed down when loading webpages so I decide ok, lets get rid of it, and reinstall (for the 31st time)

So off we go. Get Nasty File Remover, scan and delete. Whats this? Can't delete some? Ok...ill do it myself. Bang. They are gone. Do another scan, wtf?! THEY ARE BACK!?!?

Search...scan...delete...seach scan delete, rinse wash and repeat.

Round and round in circles we go.

Whats worse, if I get rid of the files and I reboot (as im told to), THE WHOLE THING GETS REINSTALLED! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

When in doubt, take the card out, THEN remove all the stupid driver files.

Check to make sure DMA is enabled on your IDE busses.

Tony thanks you for making him side-scroll. And yes, both XP and Creative SB5.1s are evil.
