^^ Whats the soundcard? [Probably a Creative, which probably means Creative's drivers are at fault, which means I recommend either the Daniel_K or PAX drivers instead]

^+1 what most people do who can no longer tolerate Craptastic drivers.

ahmm it say here its a C-media PCI Audio device...i already installed the latest driver for it..but i think its the cards problem now..,,i think im gonna buy some new card..,but before that maybe someone can help me to fix this one...

 

[davcon]

Move it to another pci slot.
Prefereably the furthest away from gpu=bottom slot

 

[gamerk316]

ahmm it say here its a C-media PCI Audio device...

More specific? C-Media based cards are used by about 8 differnet companies, so that doesn't rule much out.

@ davcon i allready move it but nothings happen...
@ gamerk316 i dont know that what companie is this card dude..maybe ill try to remove some parts in my cpu..,

 

[davcon]

Like gamerk316 said many companies use C-Media chips.
The card will likely have an identifying number stamped or stickered on it somewhere
Google it/them = find out maker

 

[MIKO30]

then whats next when i allready found the companies who make this??
ohh god i can here like theres a popcorn inside my headset ahaha..

 

[gamerk316]

^^ C-Media makes several soundcards, but sells them to other companies, which use the chipset as a base for their own models. As such, you need to find out exactly what drivers you need to install, as teh default C-media ones may not work properly.

For instance, my old Razer Barracuda, when drivers were not installed, was listed as a "C-Media audio device".

when i put my soundcard here in my computer it automatically downloaded a driver for it so i know that i have the latest driver for it..,,but the problem is the sounds like crackling here in the headset when i play some sounds or playing games..,i dont know how to fix this..,,maybe i will buy some new soundcard...
