Fuzzy/Distorted Sound


Recommended Posts

Hello.

I have a really big problem,although i searched google and found its a pretty common problem i could not find any solution.

I recently had Vista on my machine, and 4 days ago was all ok untill sudenly all my mp3,the movies have no sound at all, on youtube it plays sometimes almost clearly,on other movies the sound si barely hearable although all is on max volume. The sound on mp3's is somewhat strange, i hear in some songs instruments ok, but the voice si blabled similar to when tunning a radio.

I thought is was a driver problem or some virus,because i had vista for 2 years on the machine,but when i installed windows 7 fresh the same thing, i eved tried with and external audio card, same again. If its not hardware(because i tried with another sound card) what could it be?

Here is a Dxdiag file to see my pc info DxDiag.txt

Thank you.

The first thing I would do is have a look to see how much dust you have collected inside the box and give it a good blow out. Then check all the MB wiring for loose or sloppy connections.

Then if that did not show any fault I would be tempted to remove half the RAM and retry it and then after replacing it remove the other half and try again.

You will have narrowed things down a bit even if you do not find the problem.

As well as the advice from catgate, did you disable the installed sound card when you tried the external one?

Done what catgate wrote, and tried to disable the other sound card, no luck.

Did you disable it or just try and then give up?

happy for nothing after 20minutes again the same problem. WTF? WHy it worked and all of sudden same garbled sound...this is really annoying...

Update: It seems to work when i plug in my mobile headphones(htc touch hd),its trange because last night i've been trying to fix it and all the time i had my other headphones genius for pc. And after i plug the mobile phones,remove them and plug my speakers it works fine. Very strange...and annoying cause after a while it goes back to the problem.

If you do not know what you did how do you know you disabled it?

Precisely what did you do.

Unless you know exactly what you are doing you are much better taking it to someone who does.

his is not a criticism it is serious advice. You can cause endless damage.

I meant after i disabled the other audio card, the problem was still there. I reactivated it,and removed the external audio card,cause obviosly it wasn't an audio card problem.

After that i haven;t tried anything just installing corel draw to work on some pictures,after that i pluged in my headphone and noticed the sound was ok,and when i plugged the speakers the sound was ok too, but after 20minites( think i closed youtube) again garbled sound,like hearing music underwater,if i plug the headphone again the sound is normal...

I do know what i'm doing,i said i didn't because i didn;t do anything to triger a solution for the problem. Just the headphones thingy.:P

Have you tried different headphone thingys?

Have you tried both back and front co-ax. sockets?

Have you tried the rear co-ax. socket with the front one disconnected from the MB?

Yes,no,no. After the headphone incident, the sound has kept itself ok. Guess the problem is solved...still strange.

Thank you all for the Help, i really apreciate it.
