Hi there, I've recently built a new comp for audio work and everything is finally working except my now I can hear a strange garbled audio noise through my speakers once booted into windows. There is a constant ticking or whirring noise and when I move the mouse a I get a sound similar to a dial up modem noise. Halfway between a screech and a scrape.
Things I have tried:
I have no way of testing the CPU but I can't see it being the cause of the problem
Anyone's thoughts on this would be more than welcome. I even considered asking PC world (the only computer shop near me) for help, that's how desperate I'm getting.
Here's the spec:
Gigabyte EX58-UD5 Mobo
Intel i7 920
Noctua CPU cooler
12 OCZ Ram 1600MHz
ATI Radeon 4670 Graphics card (passive)
EMU 1820 Soundcard + Breakout Box
Be Quiet Dark Power Pro 650w PSU
Sony DVD rw Optical Drive
Western Digital system drive
Samsung audio drive
Seagate video drive
Hope that's enough info for now and like I say if anyone can help please let me know as I meant to starting work on a friends music project soon.
Regards,
Will.
Things I have tried:
- Isolating the mobo and all the components from the case placing the mobo on an anti static bag and then a card box.
- Updating Bios, soundcard drivers and graphics card drivers.
- I've also tried using the onboard sound and this produces the same results.
- I've also tested the soundcard, video card, PSU, and HDD in my old computer and booting from the same HDD produces no unwanted noises what so ever, the only things I can't test are the CPU, RAM and obviously the mobo itself.
