Its been a while since I've posted on here. I'm having this problem with the audio on my computer. I just got a recent upgrade and about a week later I started having problems with my sound. The problem is I hear popping sounds through my speakers whenever there is audio accompanied by animation. So in games and online animations, among other things, there is a constant popping sound which bugs the hell outta me, but when I listen to music, there is not really a problem. There does seem to be a slight popping though when another sound plays along with the music. The problem only occurs every other time the computer is on. So right now, im not having the problem, but if I restart, I will have the problem. Thats why its so frustrating. I tried replacing my soundcard and that didn't help. I tried plugging in different speakers, that didn't help either. Maybe it has something to do with my mobo? Its an Asus A8V if that helps. If anyone has any advice, I would appreciate it.
