Lag on line input
When I listen to line in to my Creative XFi card I get a lag of around 1/4 of a second. Line in comes from an analogue mixer and is fed to an amp via an optical out. Until recently, with my Audigy USB card, I could play along to a YouTube track and record backing and my solo successfully.
The BIOS battery failed and the Audigy failed (unrelated problems): three attempts at replacement have exhibited the same lag,- a Creative USB card, a Terratec USB card and now an internal Creative XiFi card. I need a genius to help me track down the problem (one person who responded to an earlier post seemed to doubt that I'd ever had a lag-free system.. less than helpful). Is there anything in the BIOS which could impact latency? I've turned off the motherboard's internal card and tried every imaginable setting in the Creative software..
I'm running Windows 7 64bit on an i7 PC with 12Gb RAM and, in case it's relevant, two graphics cards. I repeat, however, that everything used to work.
