I have been trying to locate the cause of a very annoying buzzing or
scratching sound that is transmitted through my sound card when ever
there is:
mouse movement
hard disk activity
re-sizing windows
I have an ASUS A7V8X-X mobo with a SCSI LVD hard drive (boot drive)
connected to an Adaptec 2940U2W card with a Tekram cable that is not
in the best shape. The small wires that make up the cable were
originally bound in a clear cellophane -like binding and these small
wires are fraying away from the cable. So I have about 3 or 4 of these
small wires terminated but "stringing" out from the main cable group
throughout the length of the cable. Not a very good cable from Tekram
I think. Anyway, is this the source of this noise?
I have tried:
relocating the card to a different slot
Removing all other cards
Replacing the video card
updating all drivers (sound and video)
I have XP loaded on this SCSI drive.
If you think it's the cable, do you have a good source for a short LVD
cable?
thanks all
