OK, I have a pair of Kinyo KY-100 headphones, and they're great but the amp they come with emits a continuous beep. Beep...beep...beep...and so on. Rougly every 1 - 1.5 seconds.
What's weird is I've realized that my PC does the same thing, albeit at a much lower and harder to notice volume. I'm using my onboard AC'97 sound. And it's not the motherboard because it stops if I turn off my speakers...and anyway, I checked the PhoenixBIOS beep codes and there are no simple continuous ones.
The amp has been doing this longer than (I've noticed that) the PC has been, but the fact that they both do it makes me wonder if it's some kind of interference from something, or if possibly it sometimes happens on AC'97 and the amp has an AC'97 chip (I don't know how to find that out).
If anyone could work this out I would be forever grateful - it's only audible from my speakers if I'm listening for it, but it is making my otherwise lovely headphones unusable.
PS I had noticed my PC doing this before the audio driver problems I recently posted about, so it is not related to that.
