    Or rather than take your PC to bits, download a free copy of Belarc Advisor. It gives you a complete audit of the hardware and software in your PC. It does much more than that however, it also checks whether your system is secure, whether your hard drive is healthy or not, the state of your memory etc, etc. It outputs all this data as a webpage on your browser. It really is a very useful utility. Incidentally, this works with any version of Windows and is as safe as houses. I've used it for ages without any issues

    p.s. Eeee, I feel reet at 'ome on this thread, t'is all soundin' so familiar like. I'll go put kettle on...

    Ah, modern technology.... From the earlier link for the PC it is a desktop, so take the side off it, have pen, paper, and torch to hand, then read the info off the mobo...
    I used to have Autocad 1, known as a pencil.....

    Chris (Technobear) - I owe you a beer - I never worked out the "configure" option on ASIO4ALL through Foobar to get it to work with my Caiman - thanks for that, I'm now all ASIO'd up - and it does seem to be an improvement.

    Sorry - back to the thread...

    Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but I've just had the same issue crop up with another machine (my laptop this time).

    Having had the problem before I knew what had to be done to hear the music (the music is a free track from Linn Records - a different one each day for December), but it's a pain having to change things.

    The soundcard on the motherboard doesn't like WASAPI and 24/88.2 files.
    Plug my HiFace2 in and select that as the playback device with WASAPI and the track plays fine.
    Seems to be a common theme with motherboard residing soundcards

    Certainly is.
    Are you trying to perpetuate the bollocks that computer audio can't be hifi?
