Greetings. I have a problem that is possibly coming from the sound card. I have been thru the entire dog and pony show with everything that could be causing the problem. The problem is as follows.
Problem : "Tick Tick Ticking" sound in the speakers while the system is on. When the system is booting to the desktop and windows XP plays its welcome chimes, the noise is not there, only after the chimes the ticking noise starts.
Action Taken : The drivers were updated. Sound card moved to another PCI slot. Power supply changed in case the cause was from "white noise".
Results : Ticking sound still present.
Computer Specs :
OS: Microsoft Windows XP HE (5.1, build 2600)
System Manufacturer: VIA Tech, Inc
System Model: KT600-9237
BIOS: Phoenix- AwardBIOS v6.00PG
CPU: AMD Athlon 2.0GHz
Memory: 512MB DDR RAM
DX ver: DirectX 9.0b (4.09.0000.0902)
Sound Card: Sound Blaster (SB Live Audio) 5.1
Sound Driver Version : 5.12.0001.0244 (English)
If anyone has any idea of what else it could be, please let me know. I may just change the sound card out to a different one.
Thank you in advance.
