Hey guys
So recently i built a PC for my girlfriend, nothing special but it gets the job done. Anyway i moved it from the kitchen table (its original home) due to it being christmas and the family was round for dinner. I should add the audio was working fine before i moved it. Anyway i moved it back into the kitchen into the exact same spot as before and now i have this horrible problem. If there is a jack plugged into the green port in the back of the PC then as soon as i hit the power button i get a squealing ringing sound constantly through the speakers. When i login to windows under the playback devices it looks like this.

Ive tried plugging the speakers into every other port on the PC to no avail, i also tried the speakers that are built into the monitor and a pair of earphones but the same issue. I tried installing the AC97 realtek audio drivers (after much arsing about with the warnings about the driver not having a certificate) but still no joy, does anyone have any idea what is wrong ?
Thanks in advance
