what to try next? I'm at the SB site trying to find some "knowledge"

Over the years I have had a static problem with my SB cards on many
occasions. This is why I like onboard sound ... never have a problem.
Right now I have my SB Live in a old Tyan Tiger with a ATI All in
Wonder 7500 and every time I record something there is the static...
you barely hear it, but it is there. This occurs in both 2K and XP so
I know it is a hardware issue.
Past experience has shown me that this is caused by some kind of or
IRQ or Memory address conflict. The only way I have solved it is by
moving things around in their slots, or just start pulling cards out
one at a time, and then see if it gets better. It is a painful and
tedious process but it is the only way I have ever been able to deal
with it.
I haven't done this on my own problem yet because it is just too much
of a hassle.
Interesting. I seem to have memories like that too. This system has
been fine until I started plugging things into the front drive-bay
unit. I have an Delphi Roadie 2 that I like to listen to while
working...so I'd plug it into the front break out box from
time-to-time....seems like that's when I started noticing these
problems. Most times, I'd just get a pop now and then...but lately,
it's so bad that I have to turn by speakers off. Muting the sound
doesn't help, either.
Seems like it's always something....must be getting time to upgrade...
