I'm getting intermittant distortion in my music. Track 1 may have static this time, but next time it may not have any? I've checked the speaker wires. They seem ok. They are BOSE with a base module.
View 1 RepliesWhen listening to music on my PC, it does not matter if I use Winamp, Songbird, Quicktime, Windows Media Player, or any other software. Every so often, there appears some sort of distortion, like the drive that the music is on slows down. I dont know if it is the driver or what. Its hard to explain. You have to hear it. I dont think its the mp3 file itself, cause I could play a song and it will be perfect, but then the next time I play it, it will distort. It is really driving my nuts cause I can't find the reason for it.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy sound is acting strange since i've installed Windows 7. (Ex-Vista user). It's making static/crackling sounds when I listen to music, or play games anything that makes sounds is getting disturbed by some kind of interrupting sound that makes crackling sounds..
Things I've tried:
1. I tried switching the cables (bought new ones)
2. I tried different speakers
3. I tried 2 different headphones
4. I tried cleaning my computer (dust)
5. I tried to get rid of any disturbing devices (phones, radios)
6. I tried uninstalling my device (HD audio device) and test it, and reinstall it, and test it again
7. I tried a reset boot (holding button for few seconds)
8. I got rid of my webcam it contained a microphone.

I tried disabling and uninstalling certain drives, did rollbacks etc. the problem persists. Booted in safe mode and the screen didn't give me any trouble also during boot up everything is fine but the flickering goes on from the welcome screen. I have an onboard 4250 if that's relevant.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen I bring my Windows 7 Home Premium desktop out of sleep or hibernation, all the normal system sounds play in a distorted manner. If I reboot, then the sounds play normally. I have an on board 5.1 HD 6 channel audio codec and have removed the driver, then got Win 7 to find the latest driver (Microsoft) but that makes no difference.On my purchase order details I find:Microsoft UAA Function Driver for High Definition Audio Adi 1986. If I try to play anything in my media folder all I get is a distorted hiss, I can't detect any 'music' at all.I don't have a spare PCI slot to fit a sound card so I would like to find the reason for this on board audio problem but not sure what to do next!
View 1 Replies View RelatedRecently I've bought the Roccat Kave gaming headset and to enjoy it ( i would not say to the fullest but at least the bass ) I bought along a Creative SB X-fi Titanium PCI-e sound card. It was all fine untill a couple days ago, where I started to feel distortion and crackling sounds when listening to anything on the computer. It is not from the headset because it works just fine when connected to the audio tray on the motherboard

I'm having this issue where all of a sudden my mouse starts to lag and when I move it, it just jerks around in a non smooth motion. At times this also happens with iTunes starting to make a hi-pitch noise or crackling. The CPU isn't the issue, I don't see it spiking or having any influence.This has happen over 2 computers. Both systems I've used a wireless Mircosoft mouse and it's only a foot away from the receiver. I built a new system last month. I have an i7, 16GB Ram, Ge Force 1GB 9800 and I'm using Realtek integrated Audio and using a SSD.My previous system was a Quad 6600, 8 GB Ram, Quadro 1700 and a Creative Audio card.I've found this issue online but no real fixes. So far I've read about limiting iTunes to one core, reinstalling QuickTime, that's if iTunes is the issue. I've figured having this issue with the old system, it was just a problem that I left behind!
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a Gigabyte Z68 Mobo, with onboard sound card. Running win 7 64 ultimate. Ever since setting up the computer I've noticed that the sound distorts at certain frequencies. For some tracks it's perfectly clear (electronic music), for others that have a lot of higher frequency noise, there's a lot of distortion (example rock). It's quite annoying. I've tried installing different drivers, rolling back, uninstalling, etc but to no avail. I've researched it online and it seems it's a relatively common problem with Realtek HD and win 7. I have no idea what to do anymore. I'm using the TOSlink port to connect to my sound system, but all the ports essentially have this distortion, some slightly more than other or at different frequencies.
Mobo: Z68A-D3H-B3
Audio driver: Realtek HD Audio 6.0.1.6482

Recently whenever I try to play a music/movie file I will often get distorted sounds. Sometimes the files play better and at other times it seems like the ram breaks down . Also I noticed that the movie files seem to 'lag' whenever the sound got distorted. Initally I thought that the speakers were at fault so I plugged in some earphones but I still heard the same distorted sounds. This problem also extends to when I am playing games and generally whenever a sound needs to be played.
Furthermore i noticed that when i turn off the internet connection the sound is perfect
I have virus/spyware scanned my pc, defragged and even gone as far as to format and reinstall everything, but the problem still exists.
i am having an issue that just appeared. when viewing you tube videos or i tunes, i get a bit of static, if i scroll at all i get major distortion. this is present for all videos i attempt to watch. i have updated itunes, as well as the latest flash version, including checking the "enable hardware acceleration" option off and on to no avail.
i have updated my sound card drivers, uninstalled and reverted to a previous version of flash, and updated my video card drivers step by step, but this did not fix the issue. initially i was getting distortion while viewing Internet and random system lock ups that required a reboot. since trying the above, i am not getting lock ups any longer, but the scrolling distortion is present. it may be my imagination, but the system seems very sluggish as well.
I havehad Windows XP for many years (I am not a techy). I cannot afford a new computer right now and my current Dell Computer(10 years old) had reached it's max storage and would not even boot up except in safe mode. My brother was helping me remotely to try and fix it and he ended up wiping everything I had not been able to back up. He also installed W7 without asking me (he meant well). The main problems I am having are visual. All my games...both on and off line..are blurry and distorted. I am no longer able to play solitaire or MSN Texas Holdem because the visual distortion is so annoying it hurts my eyes and ruins the game for me. I tried to revert back to XP but the visual changes are apparently permanent. As I cannot purchase a new computer at this time, I need some help to see if I can adjust my visual settings. Also, while I have been able to find a font that works reasonably well with W7, somesites are still difficult to read as the font seems faded out.
View 1 Replies View RelatedBasically, when listening to music, every 30 seconds or so, the music distorts pretty bad and my mouse will skip across the screen. This may be unrelated, but in order to power on my computer, not only do I have to press the power button, I have to go to the back of the computer and toggle the power supply switch off/on very quickly in order for the computer to even boot.
View 1 Replies View Relatedi've gone to microsoft for help with this issue, been to several tech forums, and even sent a request for help to adobe flash player for help but i have had absolutely no luck.
basically this is my problem...i am a student and i just upgraded my gateway laptop to windows 7 home premium x64-bit for that $30 deal. everything is running perfectly except my on-line videos.
every single time i click on "full screen" to maximize the video size i start having sound distortion after about 30 or 40 seconds. i've checked and it's not my browser (i've tried it with firefox and ie). i went to upgrade my sound driver but i got a message saying that my driver is already up-to-date. i also thought that the problem might be the flash player but i checked on that too and it was also up-to-date.
the best way that i can describe the distortion is that i have this sound that makes all of the noise in the video sound like everything is cracking up under water. hope that makes sense. oh, and to make things even worse...i don't have this problem on Internet. i don't know if Internet formats their videos in a certain way but i can put videos on full screen without the sound distortion. if you'd like an example of the type of videos i'm talking about go to msn.com and look at the tiny little video that they always have on the left side titled "video highlights".
any help would be greatly appreciated...i really don't know what to do. i have a small bit of understanding of computers but i'm not that tech savvy.
So my girlfriends Asus has an issue where it will disconnect itself from wifi and at the same time if anything sound is running from the computer, music or video. The audio will distort and she has to restart the computer to fix it, this only lasts a short time before it happens again.She has tried updating the wifi and audio drivers and this didn't seem to help.
View 13 Replies View Relatedafter reformatting my windows 7, my sony laptop came up with a weird screen problem. I have updated/re-installed graphic cards etc and even reformatted and same problem. Before the reformatting it didn't use to happen.Basically this happens:Right after "Starting Windows" boot screen and animation finishes, It flashes a bunch of small colored dotted distortions at the top of the screen. It only flashes this once right before the Log in Screen. No other problems occur after that.Tried "No GUI Boot" still didnt fix it.I assume the backlight/inverter is failing?

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have been having for over 2 hours, but to no avail. Ever since I upgraded my previously windows vista computer up to windows 7, I have been having severe problems connecting to my home internet. Now, I cannot change any of my routers settings since they are my step fathers ,and he has a set username and password that I am not allowed to know. All other device in our house will connect just fine to our internet, and my laptop can connect to all other routers fine, this one is the only one I have problems with. What happens is that I get a "connected with limited access" error, and am completely unable to gain any internet access. I managed to set some static IP settings that allow me internet access, yet make things run more slowly and I am unable to connect with people properly in game, such as hosting a terraria server and other things like it. [code]
I have attempted uninstalling and reinstalling the network drivers, and when I troubleshoot problems when I'm not using the static IP, it says there is a problem but gives little to no information, while being unable to automatically solve the problem.Let me make it clear that when I was on windows vista, my connection was fine, and I still connect to every other network I try fine without the static IP. I have attempted to use ipconfig /remove and ipconfig /renew also to no avail, and I am really not sure what else I can do. The static IP allows me connection to the internet, but I am tired of it being slow and giving me trouble with connectivity.
I have a HP pavilion P6000 with windows 7.About a couple of months after I purchased the computer,I would turn it on and it would just loop the HP splash screen over and over. I called HP and after hours trying this and that I was told to disconnect any plugs from the computer and push the start button for 2 seconds to discharge any static then it would start right up, that worked for a few weeks Started happening over and over, sent the computer back to HP (after hrs. of tech support) they replaced the motherboard. That worked for about a month then same thing happened again.
Sent it back again (after hrs. of tech support) HP replaced something to do with the possessor, work for a while. Now every time I boot up I have the same problem again looping the HP splash screen until I discharge the static, then it works until I shut it off.
It is randomly changing from a static IP to a DHCP one, Problem is that it's my media server.it also happens for no particular reason, I can reboot 10 times and it'll stay the same, but after a day or two or three even (seems random) it just flops back. i've uninstalled and reinstalled the driver for it and got nothin.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis isn't a question about a printer sitting somewhere in the house.During tax season we go to the local library to do free tax preparation. We use an online program. We plug in our Ethernet cable to the library's system and each laptop has a static IP to identify it to the network.What we would like to do now is bring in a wireless printer to use for tax forms. Attached directly to this printer is a small router we have used before. But if we simply pressed the print button, I suspect it might look on the libraries wireless network for that printer.Besides assigning a static IP to this printer, I'm thinking we might also have to include the MAC address as well so it finds that router connected to the printer.

Just the other day I noticed when I was watching a movie on my computer with my headphones on then muted the sound I heard heavy static. I also have a Logitech mic that I just bought recently and when I played back my voice via from Audacity, all I heard was constant static noise. Are my speakers going out? Or do I need to update my sound card/driver? If so, what kind for a Windows 7 64 bit would I need to download?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have Windows 7 Pro and I connect my laptop to many different customer networks. It does a nice job identifying the network and setting a default printer etc. However...
I have one customer with 15 cellular routers that I maintain. Each of them has a static LAN IP with DHCP turned off. As soon as I manually set the static IP Windows Identifies the network and I'm good. Then when I done I need to manually set the static IP back to DHCP. Is there any way for Windows to switch to a static IP that I assign when I plug into these routers?
or
Is there some third party software (free would be nice) that can do that?
My old IBM laptop had some software that did exactly that. I think it was called Access connections.
Any thoughts ideas or suggestions?
