Hello, I have a Nforce 2 Shuttle Motherboard, and the sound on it can only do one thing at a time.

Like if Music is playing, I can't hear AOL Instant Mssger sounds, or i can't hear the game sounds.

When I go to the Sound Control Panel and Activate Full Duplex Mode, the Pc freezes for like 10 seconds, then says CPU overloard and cancels the Sound Settings.

I have a 2500+ barton so i know this is crap... what else can i do?

Are you using ALSA? If not, try it...it will probably fix this issue.
