you have 2 choices to solve your problem.

1) goto into System Hardware and update your SBLive Driver from there. It will seek out a driver from the windows update server if it is there.

2) goto the Creative website and download the updated sound driver 11/29/01 rev 1

I would first try the Microsoft WDM driver. That's the most stable.

I had done both already, I had the problem before and after the update.

try disabling the box enable digital audion for this cd rom device

go to system properties then hardware then device manager then dvd/cd drives then click the drive then select properties and clear the check box

write back if works

Thanks everybody for the reply, I had the problem playing music CD or mp3 off the HD, only when the visualization is on. If I just play the songs from track1 to end, it is ok, but if I double click on individual song to play, that's when the freezing happen.
