Which soundcard drivers are you using? If you used Windows Update, it
will install Microsoft's own stock driver, which is considerably
inferior. You can get the latest drivers at www.creative.com under the
support section.

i alreayd have the latest drivers by nvidia.

No, not Nvidia. CREATIVE.

Go to their site (or www.soundblaster.com) and look in the support section.
Follow the instructions and you should be presented with the option to use
an automatic driver updater program. Install it according to the
instructions, and let it download new sound drivers for you. Hopefully
everything should work after that.

Run DXDiag.exe and see if the sound tests works. This uses DirectSound.

Have you tried the configuration for the cross-fading DS output plug in?
Does it work with other output plug ins? If you upgraded yer
installation of DirectX, sometimes the Device GUID change and you have
to reselect the output device in the configuration for the plug in.
