Windows 7 Of course another sound problem :(

[imper]

Well i finally have a problem with 7. For some reason after i have been running the computer for a little while sound just stops working. And all videos run verry choppy. If i restart it all works fine, but about 15 mins later its not working anymore.

What could be causing this? Im up to date on all my sound drivers.

I have a similar problem. My sound is fine and about 30 minutes in, it goes all choppy. EVERYTHING. Music, wavs, online sound. Someone said the sound components might be over heating but I don't see how. The side panel is OPEN and it has 4 fans keeping the air going. If I restart, it doesn't help. Anyone? Thanks.
