115987 2003-01-22 08:05:00 I am just getting frustrated with my voice conversations on MSN as my speakers give a loud buzz which I cannot seem to eradicate. Someone has told me it could be the speaker. My PC is about 5 yrs old and I have just had a new soundcard placed so my conversations can take place. The voices are loud and clear and no delay. Just as if they are in the room with me. Have checked all settings but to no avail. Can anyone tell me how to stop the buzz?? maryanne (3054)
115988 2003-01-22 08:22:00 Firstly, try the simple things.

The cable from your sound card to the speakers should not be run near any of the other cables connected to your computer. It could be picking it up from there.

Second, your screen can emit magnetic radiation that causes a buzz. Worst from the sides and back, try locating your speakers and cabling away from the monitor.

115989 2003-01-22 08:51:00 Thank you Godfather. You would not believe it. The speaker plug was not pushed in securely and as soon as I plugged it in, the buzz disappeared. Cannot believe I did not try the basic things first. Thanks so much. Only have to get my left speaker to balance the volume the same as the right one. cheers maryanne (3054)
