84422 2002-09-29 09:08:00 Hello all,
My Creative Inspire 4.1 Speakers are starting to sound like a popcorn machine! Surround isn't very good. Now could this be a problem with my speakers or should i invest in a Audigy or SB Live replacing my intergrated 6 Channel Asus one? It works 'alrite' with the two front speakers alone but when the back ones go on, it gets a bit worse.

If i have to get a soundcard i would prefer a SB Live, its a lot cheaper and my speakers are only 4.1, thanks for the help

Thanks

84425 2002-09-29 09:30:00 I'm not sure if it could have any effect or not but if say the mouse cord crosses over (touching) the speaker cables then try re-arranging them so that they are separated to see if that fixes the problem.

Hope this helps
