Hopefully someone can help me with this.
I got a new computer a while ago and now started to record with it and for some reason, there are some sort of digital clipping on the tracks even when I'm recording with very low levels. There are also some small clicks, when I play just single files with mediaplayer etc. Here are the specs:
M Audio Audiophile 2496
Fujitsu-Siemens
Asus - A8NE-FM
AMD Athlon A64 3500+
1024 Mb
250 Gb
ATI RADEON X550 64/256MB pci-e
Windows XP (service pack 2)
I already changed the PCI-slot for the soundcard as it shared the same IRQ with the ATI and now it's on 17 and ATI on 18. I looked the ASUS-manual and it seems there is some part of VIA (they always makes things worse), didn't see that one coming, but could that be the problem? Few computers earlier I had some VIA-stuff on the motherboard and that made same kind of click, if I remember right, someone had made a program that helpped the situation, can't find it anymore though, as I don't remember the name of it.
Here's the manual of the motherboard if that helps with tips:

I'm really pissed as I just got this computer for this and now it doesn't seem to work right, any ideas? The soundcard is broken?
