Sound Prob. Pulsating Static

NipplesTheCat · 03-20-07, 07:07 PM

Every now and then when I play my sound goes nipples up on me. All of a sudden I will get a very very loud and continuous pulsating static noise. Sometimes if I take off my headphones for a few mins and wait it out my sound goes back to normal. Other times I have to restart the game. I cant figure out why this is happening or how to record a sample for you guys to hear. Any ideas guys?

P4 2.0
ATI x1300

768 mb DDR
SB live that is quite old

Oh thank god!

Mine's been doing that for the past month, of and on. It's only once or twice every session of play, but god it scares the sh** out of you when you're sitting their at siletn running, headphones on, lights out then: BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZ

I just thought it was my pc starting to show signs of age... hmmm:hmm:

What mods do you have running? The reason I ask this sounded very similiar to what happened after doing a half-baked reinstall of the game and the GWX 1.02 addon. I installed some registry-cleaner program and attempted again and this problem went away.

TGW 1.1. Yeah it scares the hell out of me.

NYGM for me. Might be a dodgy install, started after the radar mod was released iirc. Thankfully I JSGME so i'll roll it all back and try again. Hope ti makes a diff. Thanks mate!

Must be something with the install bc mine has done it since I can remember. What sound card do you have? Did I ask that already? IIRC it has also happened to me in Oblivion. Maybe its time for a new sound card? IDK. I dont even remember how old this card is. Maybe that means its really old.

EDIT: Oh jesus what is this wild night in bangkok avatar?
