I have creative SB live player 1024 and don't notice this. The only thing I do notice is at their web update site, it tells me I don't have any creative devices installed.

I spose you could uninstall and use the drivers from windows update and not use creatives wdm driver just their software.

Maybe try moving it to another PCI slot, especially if it's sharing an IRQ with your video card.
