<LOL!> Twice! Once as the answer to the problem, and once more for the
"ring any bells" phrase.

Mine is more like a high-pitched tone .. maybe 4KHz .. all the time.

Plug the speakers into the proper jack. The only noise made by an
electronic computer is the noise from the hard drives. Sounds from the
speaker means something ain't right in the audio department.

What do you hear without speakers or headphones?

Yes, really. There's a normal speaker output *and* a headphone output on my
sound card. If I plug ear buds into the speaker output, I blow out my ear
drums when there's sound coming out and get white noise otherwise.
something that could easily be called like water.

In addition pluging the wrong plug into the sound card is by *far* the
most common problem people have with their sound card.

You *really* don't know **** do you?

You are so right there. I think chucktard and rTS are from the same
mold.
And no one seems to be able to leave this thread alone. I thanked Mike
Eater for giving me an idea. As I said it was some of the checked
enhancements under the realtek high tec audio controller. I unchecked
them and all is still well. No more strange noises.
