Intel Mobo D915GAV-L

Kingstone 512MB 400Mhz Ram
Seagate 40Gb Baracoda HDD
LG Combo drive
Creative Live 7.1 SoundCard
Lucent Modem
Fly Video TV tuner
I assemble my computer and install Windows XP pro SP2 (HT enabled in the bios while installing windows). When i completed windows installation and install the driver of Creative Live 7.1 soundcard (Full software instal not only the driver) my computer freezes. I restart my pc and install other drivers (modem, Grafics card..) at this time my system works great. When i again install the Creative soundcard softawre+driver system again held (totaly freez). I restart my pc and this time I Disable HT in the bios then i again install my soundcard drivers now system does not freez and the installtion is completed sucssesfuly. I resatrt my pc and enbale HT in bios and when windows start and loads the soundcard software at startup the system again frezzes. I change the pci slot of the card but it dosent work.
I reinstall the windows (HT enabled in the bios) but this time Windows XP Pro 2002 (not sp2), install the soundcard software-driver(whole cd installation) and my PC install the software without freezing.
I install other softwares and drivers but system does not freeze. But when i install the SP2 Patch
(SP2 upgradation) after restarting my system again freezes on the loading of soundcard software+driver.
When I enable HT in bios system helds and when i disable it system does not freeze.
Whats the problem? What should i do.
I am realy confuse about it. I want to enable HT but it freezes. Plz help me. My soundcard drivers are latest.
If someone helps me i ll be greatly thankful to him.
