Hello. I recently purchased a Sound Blaster Audigy sound card and installed it in my computer. My computer is brand new and came with an on board sound card. Its the Gateway Media Center model GT5238E. Now when i first installed it and installed the drivers cd everything worked great. Then i go on youtube.com and everytime i'd try to watch a video on there it would freeze after about 5 seconds then shut down my Internet explorer. I managed to fix that problem i just disabled the other sound card that was on my mother board but i cant seem to fix the problem of my computer shutting down on its own. it doesnt do it over and over but it does do it frequently and i dont think thats good for my computer. I know its the sound card causing t his because it didnt happen until i installed this damn thing. Is there anything i can do? or maybe do you think i need a new sound card? is this a common problem? i paid 40 bucks for this damn thing
