Ive tried reinstalling drivers, changing PCIE slots, changing PCIE speed, nothing works. I have this issue at least twice a week with my Gigabyte Aorus X870 Ice with a 9950X3D.

Considering the amount of posts around the net about this issue, im considering installing the drivers/software for the newer cards, would that work?
Any other suggestions? This issue is causing me to lose my work.

Sony STR-2100ES

Not sure what's causing it. Unit is 3 years old with probably less than 1000hrs of watch time. It's plugged into my projector (Valerion Plus2) through eARC with a high speed HDMI cable.

I replaced the cable today and it didn't help the issue. Not sure what else check other than assume that the receiver is dying for some reason.

Having an issue with my Valerion Plus 2

It won't turn on from the remote or rear button, just flashes in this sequence.

Any ideas? Valerion support isn't being helpful.

This studdenly started happening, I have automatic updates off on the command app so I don't think the driver updated to cause this. I haven't made any hardware or software changes recently. Anytime the computer wakes up from sleep it's a 50/50 chance that this will happen. I've tried completely wiping any Creative related software and reinstalling the app which has not fixed the issue.

​

I have the PCI slot set to PCI Gen 1 as well.

​

Any advice?

Things ive tried:

• Wiping Creative software with RevoUninstaller and reinstalling v3.4.92
• Changing PCI modes in bios
• PCI Link State in power plan is set to off
• Motherboard detects the device in the PCI slot, so its working fine

EDIT: Issue resolved. I randomly decided to re-enable every audio device in the old Windows Sound window and the card came back online, even though none of the ones I re-enabled were Creative devices, makes no sense, but it worked.

I was initially going to order an SC exhaust but while shopping all the brands I noticed they use mufflers from China and almost all of them use identical 3-to-1 headers, I couldnt justify spending the price they're asking for when I could get a similar system from China for a fraction of the cost (flame me all you want, its just an exhaust system)

After shopping online for a bit I came across this system for ~$300 that used a 2/1-to-1 header and was curious to how it would sound.

Weld quality is S-Tier (I was shocked), but the fitment of the pipes was a pain in the ass though it worked out in the end.

Have a listen, its got a much choppier deeper tone than the 3-to-1 header.
