hi there,
my sound has started crackling when i am running multiple programmes in windows (usually if anything more than WMP, outlook, acrobat reader and word). don't know about games as i'm not playing any at the moment - uni exams!
this started happening after my old graphics card (mx 440) died and i switched to onboard graphics (S3 Savage DDR Pro).
my sound card is a creative audigy ls 5.1.
just wondering if the crackling is likely just due to the crappy graphics stressing out the rest of the system, or if its going to be something more serious?
putting a 9800 pro in once my exams finish - should that sort it out?
cheers
