Hey guys,
I've been having some trouble lately. I use ventrilo a lot for gaming and it seems there is some sort of whining coming out of my mic. I isolated the problem and it seems to be coming from the PSU strangely enough.
Whenever I disconnect my Ethernet cable from the pc a squealing noise starts coming out of the PSU the same noise that comes out of the microphone. (recorded myself). Once I connect the ethernet cable the noise goes away from the psu. When I dont have the ethernet connected there is no noise on my mic when I record myself.
I'm assuming this is some sort of grounding problem as my cable modem probably does the grounding, and without it the noise. Is there anyway I can fix this? I'd like to keep the ethernet connected and not have the mic noise.
Thanks
