Is this sound like a european police car coming thru the computer speaker - ie: oooo ahhh - ooo ahhh ? - not thru the creative sound card - but the box.

Thought may have been software like zone alarm - Nortons A/V or Add aware - but have had them on board for ages?

Same with hardware - been there for years - Nokia ADSL Modem,(maybe something with the local exchange)

Manufacturer won't answer - so first reaction was - bios battery - or overheating? - but now dont think so.

Any ideas, Thanks - Simon

Just a thought!
