as the titile says... i'm having some issues with my new config...

i installed the 5870 and proceded to play wolvenstien... after several minutes i noticed several lines down the screen... what youd usually see before the ati driver stopped responding, but this recovered quickly...

then a few minutes more and the sound completely cut out...

upon reboot it returned, and unfortunatly reproduced the same result...

after rebooting the 3rd time i was surprised to see a code12 in hardware manager against my sound card...

it said their were not enough resources for the driver to start...

i have uninstalled the 5870, reinstalled the sound card and now have sound once more..

i am in the process of installing the 5870... update in 2 secs...

any ideas on a solution or a clear explanation of what is happening would be very helpfull... hopefully this is easily fixed...
