MX300 + Win2k = Media player hangs and will not play sound in winamp . (U003c — Please help!) [mx 300] [beta drivers]

Q: Works fine for a minute or so . But after the sound just dies . You can press play in winamp, but the timer will not move.

Even tried the from Aureal without success!

I said another person who had the same problem. But when I said that mine run fine in win2k. (It was the last time) But now I changed mobo and processor.

Anyone a successful setup with the MX-300 and Win2k?

Re:Yeah, my wife gets a whole new computer system for MY BDAY. HEH!!! Anyways, I really just enjoy putting it together, and I do get an extra 128MB for my system out of it. Shes getting a duron 650 on the MSI K7T pro. Should be a real nice boost from her current p2 350.

Re:Sounds nice! :)

Btw… good luck m8 ;)


Re:win2k for sure. Ill pm you or reply here as soon as I get it up and running.

Re:<< Nice, I was waiting to get a VIA mobo to test this week, but you got it fine. COOL!! >>

But I still can't get it to work with Win2k… what OS are u planning to use?


Re:Nice, I was waiting to get a VIA mobo to test this week, but you got it fine. COOL!!

Re:I've installed WinME and it works just fine there… :)

I've got the Via 133 Pro chipset… and installed the upgrades :)


Re:Yeah, VIA mobo's might have problems. My MX300 works fine on my BX6r2. Everything sounds great on it. But when I tried the sound card in my gf's computer w/ Asus p3v4x, it showed the symptoms you stated where it locks up. Post your mobo and somebody will check to see if it's compatible. Whatever u do…don't throw the sound card out. It's still worth something. However, getting Live is up to you; from a utilitarian point of view, if you can get the mx300 to work, keep it.

Re:My mx300 works fine with win2k too. Using the win2k drivers on a soyo iv.

Re:I've got a MX300 running Win2k, and it works just fine with the default windows drivers. This is on a 815 board w/ a p3 733. MX300 has KICKASS sound quality, period, so I don't blame you for wanting to get it to work. I don't have SP1 installed either. DOTE… users are calling….

Re:Ive been reading some stuff. It seems the mx300 will always have issues with Via chipset mobos. What do you have guy???

Re:dood dump the mx300… it'll cause problems.

it's finiky… it worked w/o problems with my win2k p3-700… but as soon as I upgraded… everything went to hell…


Re:Thanx!

I think it's either that or the Hollywood Plus MPEG card that fvcks things up


Re:Yeah, I have SP 1 installed, but it worked just fine before that as well. I do not have any DivX codecs installed, Ill try that when I get home from work, to see if that messes things up. If it does, then you have your culprit.

Re:I did a clean install yesterday and at first it worked, but when I've installed DivX ;-) codec and my H+ card everything hangs while playing a mp3-file. Including playing a asf/avi with a mp3sound in…

worked perfect on win98/win95 and winMe (with the latest drivers)

Btw, do u have service pack 1 for win2k installed?

tried and move the mx300 to another pci-slot but it didn't work either… There were no irq-issues on either slots.


Re:I responded to you on another thread. My MX300 works perfectly in win2k. I just use the native drivers that came with win2k. I have a tbird 700 on a giga-byte ga-7ixe mobo. Whats your system like? I used to have crazy issues with my mx300 in win98, then I switched to win2k and now it rules. Another thing, when you got the new mobo, did you do a clean reinstall of win2k? Let me know, Ill help if I can.

Re:The I got to buy me one of those crappy Soundblaster Live 5.1 cards…

Soundblaster IS suck!


Re:Everyone I've ever heard of that switched to 2K with an MX300 eventually dumped it for a sound card that works. Sorry, it doesn't just have to work someway or another…

Re:But it don't wanna get a new soundcard as long as the MX-300 works fine in win98. It has to work someway or another!

If it wasn't for the driver problems it had have been a great soundcard!!!


Re:dump the mx300… that's what I did… i got myself a CL live card… and it seems to work fine.
