No sound after a few minutes when playing music or movie
i have a problem with sound on my pc
whenever i play music or movie files from an external usb 2 HD (connected to a PCI USB2 card) or from a HD connected to a PCI to IDE Raid Card the sound stops after a few minutes. the player continues to run as if there is no problem. only if i restart the pc i get the sound back . if i play a file from my internal HD that is connected to the mobo IDE i dont have any problem. i seems like the problem is with the PCI cards.
CPU: intel p4 2.0 ghz
Mobo: p4x266-8233
Chipset: via p4x266 (vt8753)

I suggest reinstalling the sound card driver, and if that doesn't work, reinstall the player application program.

someone told me it may be conflicting IRQ how can i check that?

Look in device manager, under control panel. If there is a yellow exclamation mark, there is a nonworking driver. Otherwise, right-click and choose properties of the device, and look in the resources tab. Alternatively, install and run Everest, and all the IRQs will be listed with what is using it: http://www.lavalys.com/products/download.php?pid=1&lang=en&pageid=3. Be aware that modern OS'es share IRQs as a normal procedure; I would only be suspicious of that if the ones used by the PCI IDE card were shared.

Look under Devices->Device Resources

Ok this is what i found .Sorry some of it is in hebrew
i see that the IDE raid card is shared and so is the usb2 card on IRQ 11
the sound card is on IRQ 5 also shared though i dont see with what
i allready tried swaping pci slots(in the begining the IDE card and sound card were on IRQ 5)

It sure looks like IRQ11 is being used by a lot of devices, but I don't know if there is a limit. Where's the sound card? SoundBlaster-compatable ones usually take IRQ 7, which is shared with the printer port.
