Sound :(

Just formatted and now have reinstalled NS and Steam. But I now have weird sound problems, wondering if there's an easy fix. I have correct sound drivers, and my sound works great outside of NS. Movies, music, etc, all work fine.
When I play NS, however, I run into some issues. The sound is all distorted and weird. Everything sounds scratchy and sped up. Then, when I try to quit, my computer just restarts. Once Windows starts back up again, it informs me that the system recovered from a major error or something like that.

HELP!!

    Kinda hard to describe. Well there's a lot of static and yeah, sped up. And that goes for all sounds, environment etc. When I call for a medpack, for example, the sound played would be something like "i nee med pa at" Lol, kinda hard to describe like i said...it plays something weird like that really fast, like bits of it are cut out, and theres a ton of static.

    installed drivers from cd, and checked online and they are the latest drivers.

    i'd also like to mention that when joining a server, it plays the loading music just fine without any distortion. When i simply open NS without joining a server, all sounds and all that are fine.

    The only problems I get are in-game

    Well it works now...no idea why or how. I gave up last night, then just now tried to play again and it actually worked. Very strange, NS had deleted all binds and settings were all to default for some odd reason, so i had to rebind everything but hey at least i have sound. No idea why
