Just installed SP2 final and am still getting the same "Critical stop" sound. It happens after the desktop has loaded, but every thing seems to be running as befor. Checked the event logs but no problems shown there. Checked running services and every thing that was running befor is running now. Checked device manager, and no problems listed there either.

If i disable every thing that starts at boot time in MSCnfig, the sound still plays. I can print, browse LAN and web, write CD's and watch TV on my hauppauge card with no problem.

I have no idea what is causing it. Any idea's ?????
