Win2K Sound (?) problem

Hi. Just a question about sound in Win2K. It seems that quite regularly when<br>I'm playing sound (or perhaps video) in Win2K (i.e. music in WinAmp, movies<br>in Windows Media Player, or even the system sounds (menu-clicks, etc)) and I<br>access the filesystem at the same time (seems to be when I'm using a shell<br>window to do anything like loading, saving or renaming a file), the system<br>willl completely lock up. I can't use the mouse, print up the ctrl-alt-del<br>menu, soft-reboot, etc. I have no idea about the cause of this problem - all<br>my drivers are up-to-date - all &quot;support Windows 2000&quot;. I'm using a Sonic<br>Impact S90 sound card with a Voodoo Banshee 3dfx board on an AMD K6/2-350.<br>If anyone has experienced a problem similar to this, or has a solution,<br>please let me know. I'd really appreciate it, as this has been bugging me<br>for while now.<br><br>Thanks<br>
