Well, I had some free time today, so I tried a different hard drive, and the sound was flawless. I then re-formatted the old HD that was making the nasty sounds and tested the audio... It works fine. I don't know what happened, but it must have been a messed up windows install (surprise surprise...)
Hopefully it will remain in working condition.
Thanks again for all your help.
