Sound Problem and PCAlert and CoolerXP

OK.  Just bought the below memory/proc/mobo, and did a reinstall of WindowXP-Pro.
What I'm seeing is that there is a highpitched buzzing noise coming through the soundport.  It probably would not usually be noticable with speakers, but because I ONLY use headphones, it's REAL noticeable.
Now here's the weird part.  If I start up CoolerXP and enable the cooler, the noise goes away.
Temperature Sensor(s)
Board Temperature : 44.0°C / 111.2°F
CPU Temperature : 52.0°C / 125.6°F
Power / Aux Temperature : 27.5°C / 81.5°F
Cooling Device(s)
Auto Fan Speed Control : No
CPU Fan Speed : 3924rpm
Voltage Sensor(s)
CPU Voltage : 1.63V
Aux Voltage : 1.87V
+3.3V Voltage : 3.23V
+5V Voltage : 5.03V
+12V Voltage : 11.98V
-12V Voltage : -12.45V
-5V Voltage : -5.15V
Standby Voltage : 4.99V

OK.  New information.  The "buzz" I was talking about is apparently beeping that was coming so often it sounded like a continuous buzz...  my computer sits in such a way that the back of the computer is visible from where I sit, and as the computer started up, I started hearing a beeping sound which corresponded to the ACTIVITY led on the NIC.  every time the activity light comes on, I get a beep.  Reason I thought it was a buzz was cuz I was downloading when I first heard it, so the ACTIVITY led was constantly lit.  Also tested by unplugging the NIC.  No NIC=No noise.
Still weird that simply turning on the CoolerXP makes the sound go away.
Suggestions?  I know I could prolly fix it by goin down & buyin a cheap $20 nic & stickin it in a pci slot but I don't wanna hafta spend that money if there's another fix.

  • Sound problems (and iTunes affected too??)

    I am getting VERY frustrated with my computer. Since purchasing it in September 2004, I have had no end of difficulty. Programs are unstable, crashing all the time. This was a problem with Panther. A few months ago, I took the computer into my dealer, and they installed Tiger on it for me. That solved the problem in the short term.
    Lately, however, the whole system (10.4.4) has been crashing regularly: the black box with the script "hold down your power button to restart" or similar comes up and I have to force a restart. This seems to have come up since I last ran update and installed what came up, including iTunes 6.0.2. I also have been watching more DVDs on the computer than usual.
    So now I'm having a problem with sound. When I press the F3 key for mute, all I get on the screen is a symbol saying the sound is up all the way. No mute symbol. But no audio either. When I press F4 or F5, no response at all. When I open the System Preferences, and the sound menu there, under "sound effects" everything is greyed out, under "output" there is no output device, under "input" there is no input device. I have tried plugging and unplugging external speakers and earphones.
    I listen to iTunes a lot, so no audio is a problem. Further, I'm having a problem with iTunes. It was fairly unstable. Now it will load and stay open, but will not play files. It looks like it's going to (as in it gives the file's information at the top of the screen, and the "pause" key is made available and can be pressed though this does not effect the file which is not actually playing in the first place).
    I have run Verify Disk and disk permissions. I have downloaded iTunes 6.0.2 again. I do not wish to do a complete system reinstall yet again. I'd be grateful for any suggestions.
    Having used Mac/Apple for 20 years, I have often bragged about problem-free computing to my PC friends. Not this time, though, not with this machine. I've been very dissatisfied with it.
    Thanks for any advice you can provide,

    Thank you for the suggestions, but feeling this problem was beyond my abilities, and not having time to fool around with it more than I already had done, I took the computer to the Apple Store in Toronto, where an Apple Genius did some stuff and fixed the problem, restoring sound and iTunes function. I'm afraid I don't even have insight into what the origin of the problem was to offer others who're having a similar difficulty.
    Anyway, all the best.

    Hi kbzone,
    ... there should difinitely be no sparks  ) I recommend that you start with checking the wiring ... is the computer connected to earth, is the amplifier? Are they connected via the same power socket? Are you sure that the amplifier is OK?
    Then, will it be possible to have any sound from the card if the amplifier is not used? You can try removing cards, uninstalling drivers and then re-install ...
    It is well possible that by now you have damaged your soundcard, btw

  • K7T Pro V1 sound problems and CPU support

    I have a K7T Pro V1 motherboard.
    I can´t use onboard sound, because when I try to locate it (Windows 2000) on Add New Device, appears blue screen and text "Hardware malfunction. Call your hardware vendor for support. The System has halted".
    What I can do? ?(  ?(
    I also would like to know why this motherboard does not support Duron Morgan processors only Duron Spitfire -versions?  :(  :(
    Thanks for your help!    

    I have enabled all in BIOS:
    OnChipSound    Enabled
    OnBoardLegacy Audio    Enabled
    Soundblaster   Enabled
    The system does not found new device automatically and when if I try to find new device manually, appears that error message and I have to boot the computer again.
    I just wonder is the problem onboard?
    About CPU´s....
    Rob454 told "...theyre not officially supporting  the Duron Morgan Cpus".
    Does  this mean I can´t use Morgans att all (even 900 or 950)?
    I mean does these 900 or 950 Morgans also need SSE support?
    And if I´ll try to use for example Morgan 1.2 Ghz does it work att all (or read as Athlon Thunderbird)?

  • Sound problems and excessive data usage. Anyone else had this problem?

    Just upgraded from 3GS to 4S literally had the phone for 3 weeks, firstly within first week got told I'd used 90% of my 500mb data allowance when I hadn't even used the phone for much data only maps and general quick web page no YouTube vids or emails.  I found this odd as O2 told me I don't even use 500mb per month wiv my 3GS and with that I was streaming YouTube lots and emailing! And now today all my sound has gone! No ringing no alert sounds and when I call I can't hear anything and neither can the person at the other end.  I have tried resetting and everything anybody else had these problems??

    The iPhone is DESIGNED to switch to cellular data when asleep, unless it's connected to a power source, in which case it will stay logged onto the WiFi network.  iPhones have ALWAYS behaved this way.
    Either turn cellular data off at night, or leave your phone connected to a power source to continue the WiFI.

  • Sound problems and not speaker

    "i have a bb 9320 and my sound keeps going off or really quiet, 

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    Best!

    Hi:
    There are no W7 32 bit drivers for your model.

  • Having a MBPr late 2013 and having a sound problem the sound does not come tom the headphones even its all the way up and when i remove the headphones it docent come out the internal speaker either ? any idea how i fix this?

    the sound do not come out the headphones sometimes altho its all the way up in the setting and when i remove the headphones the sound doesnt come from the internal speaker either and only a reboot fixes the problem and thats annoying! any idea how tto fix this?

    Hello. I've been able to play sound without problems through headphones or external speakers to date - the output always switched to these automatically until today. Now, sound output continues through internal speakers even if I plug in headphones or external speakers.
    - I tested the headphones and speakers on other devices: they work fine.
    - When I plug in headphones or speakers into the audio output port (I have verified that I'm not using the input jack) the devices are not detected and are not listed under the output tab in system preferences-sound.
    I concluded from this that I probably had a problem with the audio port, so to test that I tried the following. I plugged a powered multi-USB device with ports for microphone line-in and headphone line-out into the USB port and switched it on. I verified that it was working by plugging a USB stick into the multi-USB device - this was recognised successfully, so the device was clearly working. I then plugged in headphones and speakers into the audio line-out on the multi USB device - but still no sound came through them (and tey were not listed among output devices) and the Mac continued using internal speakers.
    What should I do? Does the latter test suggest that the problem does not lie with the audio port, or is my test not conclusive? What would you advise?
    Many thanks indeed!

  • Problem finding my sound effects and music in final cut pro X

    I am having a problem finding my sound effects and music in final cut pro X.  I just bought a new i
    Mac, because my Mac pro died.  when I was using the mac pro, I had final cut Pro X loaded, and in the Music and sound library, I had stock tracks from APM music that came with final cut.  now that I have loaded final cut to my new computer, I do not see those tracks.  Am I missing something?

    The FCP X sound effects were an additional external download and were not kept in the FCP X application.
    You probably need to re-download them.
    In the FCP menu at the top left of your screen you will see the download link.

  • I can hear people on call but sometimes they can't hear me, it maybe fine for afew mins but then sound drops again? Anyone have this problem and find a solution? Thanks.

    I have an Iphone 4 13.5 GB, iOS 7.1.2. Currently when I make a call or someone calls me, I can hear people on call perfectly but sometimes they can't hear me. It maybe fine for afew mins but then sound drops again? Anyone have this problem and find a solution? Thanks.

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

  • Just buy my macbook last week, and the problem is i cannot start my macbook and is making are beep beep sound. And is become warm. But when I connect to a charger is can start like normally.  What I'm need to do so? Thank You.

    Since you are covered by warranty, I would take it to your nearest Apple store immediately. There might be a problem with the RAM. And, you have 14 days to return the machine, so if it is not an easy fix, you might want to consider returning it for another machine.
