still can't figure it out. Ive already tried reinstalling my drivers, checking the connections, and calling asus, but nothing worked.

Just maybe it would help to know the exact name of the motherboard (its audio device) and the name and model of the speakers. Maybe if you Google "<name of speaker> random static sound" then it will come up with results saying that it's a known problem.
It's a long shot, but it's worth a try seeing as the most probable causes have been ruled out.

It isn't the speakers because they have no issues on other computers.

Motherboard is asus p5nsli, comes with soundmax drivers. Speakers are those logitech ones, 5.1.

Trust me, I have exhausted my google search options with this issue. Techspot is not the first place I come when I have issues, it is one step before the manufacturer, or in this case (when the manufacturers are complete tools), my last resort before I go to the hardware store and buy a sledgehammer.

Still looking for a solution to this issue if anyone has an idea.

THanks

Unable to solve problem. Please advise

To be honest mate, i've run out of ideas to help with, and most of these guys won't post if they don't know the answer to your questions..

As probably the last ideas that comes to my head are:
- dirty power > try other power points, different power circuits, friends place etc.
- motherboard is faulty > RMA/Replace
- get another sound card (external or internal)
- visit the Asus forum http://vip.asus.com/forum/default.aspx?SLanguage=en-us

Asus is useless

Tried multiple places

No room for a sound card really

And the big thing is I really dont wana RMA the mobo

Bad Audio

Hello. I've been having this problem as well, however, this is the complete opposite. When I have a PCI Sound Card in use, my Asus A8V dispatches serious static and pops/clicks. Especially during high CPU usage (i.e:BF2 and MP3's). I tried every home brew driver as well as Creative Audigy's ZS'. I also tried to use another audio card to see, this one being an M-Audio. Same results.

I am currently using an AMD 3000+ Winchester CPU OC'd to 2.1Ghz (44c load).
My HT Link is at 1166Mhz and RAM runs at 233.3Mhz. It's 2Gb (2x1Gb) of OCZ PC3200 400. 460watt generic PSU. I would really appreciate some input on this as I detest Realtec's Audio sampling. I am a guitar player and it's awful to have to decrease the audio quality of an already poor source. Any ideas guys? I'm completely out.

P.S.: Be yourself, No one else. J. Shinder
