My UX1 was working perfect but few days back it started acting weird, gives clipping sound when m playing guitar through it or even just playing some tracks. which is exactly how it behaves when i connect to my other older laptop because its kinda slow. Plus there is some kind of residue noise which starts to appear whenever there a windows or system sound, after that i have to relaunch pod farm to make it go away but then it reappears.

Also earlier my system used to route all the sounds for eg. media players and web browsers thru ux1 whenever i would connect it to my laptop but now i have to relaunch the application to get the sound via ux1.

Could this have somthing to do with my laptop??? if yes then is there some way to identify that. I'm in middle of a recording project n this is really annoying. plz help...
