sound card FUCKING madness

jesus christ.

my soundcard went out again today - i removed my keyboard
from the line in slot - i had been recording - then i get a
blue screen that tells me to restart my computer. and when i
restart it, my computer tells me there's a "resource" error
in PCI slot 1 - my sound card. I tried everything and
nothing worked.

Well my sound card went out a couple of months back so i
figured i would remove it, start the comp back up again,
then put it back in. tried it - didn't work. So i figure,
fuck it, i probably fried it again, I'll just get another
one.

And I turn my computer back on - soundcard now removed - and
my fucking sound STARTS WORKING AGAIN. My old soundcard
apparently reactivated somehow - my sound is fine now.

Madness - I was so pissed off for a second too - now i'm
just REALLY confused - but i have sound, so i can't
complain.

btw, my old soundcard came built in on the computer - so i
couldn't remove it when i installed the new one.
but............ meh.

i just bought a tascam audio interface. this thing has been
giving me many problems. the midi is really bad. AND when i
shut down my comp or put it into hibernate i have to unplug
it from the usb slot. it sucks!

i remember you having that problem a while back, it is
usually best if you avoid unplugging and plugging things
into the pc while it is still turned on (with the exeption
of USB devices of course)

really, okay. sucks though i cant turn off my pc without
unplugging it though. should i just keep my pc on all the
time? is that good for mah computer?

don't you have an 'OFF' button?

I know people that keep their computers on 24/7 and don't
have any problems, i personally turn my off or the noise
keeps me awake.

just unplugging a keyboard from the soundcard shouldn'tve
done anything wrong.. maybe you dislodged it or something..
was it screwed in properly? or maybe you leaned on the plug
slightly as you were taking it out, causing something to
break?

i didn't unplug anything, but i noticed the new soundcard
was loose when I opened up my comp. there was a resource
conflict whenever i tried to boot up the pc with the new
soundcard in - but when i removed it and booted, my old one
started working again. oh well - at least i have another one
if this one goes bad.

i always had a weird feeling about the built-in (old)
soundcard because i didn't really do anything that would
have made it fuck up. i guess it just got disabled - but i
couldn't restart it from windows. i must have done something
at the BIOS screen that enabled it again.

madness.
