Here is my problem: I am trying to stream FLAC files from my laptop or desktop running XP and foobar2000 via usb to a Bryston BDA1 DAC then on to a preamp and 2 channel amp.I get these little popping noises at irregular intervals. Same thing happens with both my laptop and destop, but not with my wife's laptop. Did some research and others were saying to disable other usb devices on the usb bus, I went in the Device manager section and did that, plus killed some processes to no avail. Even disabled all wireless cards, etc..
My problme is that i will be doing things on line or anyotherthing on my pc and i will hear random noises like error noises or download noises but i have no screen pop up ? i was just wonderg what was going on or if something was doing things to my pc that i cant see ?
My computer is old (but I love it). And recently I hear funny clicking noises from my C drive and it cannot always be accessed. I have win2k installed on drive C and winxp on another physical hard drive D. I am using only winxp on D.
I keep hearing very weird noises out of my computer. - Which I thought was adaware or something.The noises are occurring more and more frequently, and new noises seam to be appearing now!)I have run f-secure, AVG, super anti-spyware, malware bytes, and possibly more.I have done a HJL (and had it checked - found nothing), and used task manager, and process explorer to try and find what is running, and found nothing
I have a Toshiba satellite and it has windows xp home edition. It has been making continuous clicking noises. What do I do,download or do I need to go to a shop?
I have a really weird problem, when i listen to a music i get buzzing really weird noises when i try to scroll or do other things like when using internet and clicking on links. I use headphones and my sound card is Sound Blaster
Ok, a little worried as I've never experienced or heard of this before... This isn't the first time I'm hearing this random strange recorded noise that goes something like "ho ho ho ho!" (in a scary santa-like way?!) followed by a female voice saying "hello?" and then another female voice saying "you better be behaving yourself" - something like that anyway.
My problem is that despite downloading pretty much every possible sound driver on the Toshiba website that it says is meant to work for Windows XP, none of them seem to make the sound work. All I get in the place of sound is that obnoxious beeping noise. When I install the drivers, most of them state that a sound device was not detected but I am perfectly sure that I have a sound device because the sound worked amazingly well when I still had Vista, or they simply 'install' and just dissappear and have no obvious effect.
I don't know what's going on with my PC. I have a HP 6420nx windows xp.
My PC suddenly froze while I was using it so I turned it off for a couple of minutes. THen when I turned it back on, it started making beeping noises. There was also no start up screen, the monitor is just blank.
When I start up my cpu, it makes a really loud whirring noise, but after I am logged into Windows and after about 2 minutes, the whirring sound subsides. I'm not sure if there is anything wrong with my computer.... I'm extremely worried about that weird whirring sound.
I am having a really irritating problem with my computer. It happens when the computer is left on for awhile, and then suddenly the computer shuts off out of nowhere. After it shuts off, it makes a weird noise(like a high pitch then low pitch), it seems like its coming from the motherboard or something.I can't even turn it off or on using the power button so I have to pull the plug from the back of the tower and restart.
HP ZT3000 was working fine. after no major changes, hard drive made a few noises and a missing hal.dll error message appeared. I have tried knoppix, for a few times I was copying files to external hard drive but the transfer stalled. I have tried fixmbr, fixboot, and copying the ntldr and ntdetec files from recovery cd. One strange thing is that the file system is now listed as fat16. Is this data recoverable? I have backed up the system on the external but it was about 2 weeks ago. I would like to recover a few emails in the outlook pst file. Is the hard drive fried or did the boot.ini file become terribly corrupt?
Not sure if this is the right forum but whenever I speak on teamspeak or even record myself with sound recorder, all the noises from my speakers, yes speakers, echo in the recording and its 10x as loud as it is in the speaker. For example, I'm talking on teamspeak and someone else says something, their words echo 10x as loud and they kick me
I have WinXP Media Center, am using yahoo DSL internet at a rate of 1.5 mbps, and use firefox as my default browser. In the past few days, I've noticed that every once and a while AOL will start and ask for me to put in my password when I didn't start it or ask for it to start. It usually happens when I open a webpage, like every 5 pages I open AOL will pop up randomly. I'm not subscribed to their service, it came with the computer. When I close it after it pops up I can't open a webpage in firefox and need to close and re-start a firefox browser for me to open a webpage again.
I just bought this computer, and after only 3 months later, my compter started to make weird buzzing noises when its in the screensaver mode. Its no doubt a virus but norton cant detect it... I never knew viruses can affect sounds on a pc.
I've read several threads here already discussion hard drive noises where the culprit seemed to be a hardware problem. But I'm not certain if my PC is showing all the right 'symptoms' for it to be hardware-related.The clicking noise occurs at start-up and *mostly* (85-90% of the time) during internet browsing.The sound itself is unusual preceeding each click, there's a grinding ''shhhhhrrrrp'' sound.
When I make a dvd my tower starts making a loud noise like the fans are blowing very fast when the program is at the transcoding part why has my pc all of a sudden got really hot? the werid thing is when i open task manager and then minimise it and then maximise it the fans slow down for about 50 seconds my computers only 6 months old and it never happend in the 1st few months.

I'm having lots of troubles with USB 2.0 support. My mother board is a ASUS P5GD2 Premium, which only has USB 2.0 ports but my Windows XP SP2 keeps popping up this error! I have some drivers, but they don't install because XP SP2 should already support USB 2.0. Maybe the cables that connect the USB ports are the problem.
I keep getting a windows installer popup window whenever I open ANY program. It says that �The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-Rom or other removable disk that is not available. Insert the disk and click OK. There is nothing listed in �Use Source�. I can�t tie it to anything I have done recently. I have Windows XP SP2.

I'm babbled as to why the on screen calculator pops up every time we hit the letter 'p' on my sons pc? It didn't used to do it & i have no idea how to stop it.
I admit I screwed up. Ventured off onto another page looking for something (andr) I think and I caught something. So I have cleaned what I can but I am still getting a lot if pop ups. I did also get hooked with spysherriff. As I type I have a total of 15 IE pages opened mow. Have to keep closing. I am running Trend Micro housecall.antivirus and along with AVG. But no help. I am including a log of Hijack this as well as Rootkit Revealer. I don't know where else to turn................
I did not pay attention to what key I accidentally pressed.Once I pressed it, the InstantShare window pops up, asking for inserting a CD-ROM to run it.I keep pressing the cancel button.It does not do anything but keep mutiplying to pop another InstantShare window up.I shut the computer down.It does not solve the problem. Now, it's always popping up and on my desktop.
