Need help and lost at where to post

[alexgoh]

Hi guys, I'm totally not sure where to post so I guess I'll post it here. I have a rather weird problem. Whenever I load counter-strike 1.6 from steam, my computer starts to give a low pitch humming sound. When I alt-tab, the sound stops. When I go back to the game, the sound starts again. I'm not even sure where the sound is coming from. Anyone has any idea? I don't have such problems with other fullscreen games, just this.

Computer specs:
ASUS P55
Intel i7 870
4GB Kingston HyperX
Saphire ATI 6870
2x WD Caviar Black 1TB HDD
CM Silent Pro Gold 650W
CM HAF 922 ATX Casing

Your help is much appreciated, thank you!

You are using a Sapphire ATI video card. They have issues with Asus motherboards. See if you can borrow another video card for testing

Bump. Anyone else have any other ideas?

So you are not going to do what I suggested?

 

[alexgoh]

No, it's not that. It's just that the spare GFX in my dad's computer is a Saph too. =/

Well try it and see if things change. Be sure to install the correct drivers

First, please try to punctuate your post. It's exceedingly difficult to read. Second, rather than post in a thread that is unrelated to your problem, please make a separate post in the appropriate forum (i.e. not this one). This way I believe you will increase your chances of getting help for your problem. Thanks.
