I never had this problem ever. Suddenly today I am building and streaming music, nothing different then what I've been doing since day 1. The stream will start to stutter, loop. crackle and my pc will reboot.

Anyone know what might be causing this? It's new to me. I never had the issue before with this game.

What sort of sound card. The issues I've seen with this have to do with the size of the primary buffers in the sound card's driver.

For some reason SL doesn't like circular WAV buffers on a device > 2048 samples. What sort of sound card is this?

Creative SB Audigy 2 ZS (WDM)

BUT I never had a problem with SL ever before today, ever with anything never. I've played all sorts of various sounds in game when making weapons etc, and those are fine. I've been listening to the same music stream (DI) since the first day, and that is where i get an issue now. The stream that did work for me or any stream playing music on anyones land will stutter, loop, bang - reboot. Every other game, higher end games and engines and winamp and various other sound programs I use work fine. No issues. Just SL, today.

I ran all the tests I could, everything looks fine. Everything looks good inside as well(just incase I took a look). Not sure what is up.
