Hi,
I bought my PC from PCS back in 2009, Intel core i7 with the Asus P6T MoBo and very pleased with the spec and speed as I use it for home video production. I have two HD's installed, 250gb 1st drive and 1.5tb 2nd drive, running win 7 pro.
As I do not use it everyday, just for video editing, I recently became aware that some strange noises were coming from the speakers built into the HD monitor which sounded like Star Wars gun shooting. I have tracked it down to every time the hard drive makes a move or just moving the mouse around the screen the noise comes out of the speakers. Even if I disable the sound card the noise can still be heard. If I disconnect the lead to the speakers then it stops.
It seems to picking up interference from the hard drive?????????
If I connect the audio output to a pair of standard PC stand alone speakers the noise is greatly reduced but if the volume is turned up you can still hear the noise.
I have gone on Google and there are many reports of the same problem with numerous makes of PC.
Has any one else come across this and if so how did you correct it?
Many thanks.
