Funny Sound off MSI K7N2

[The_Lurker]

For some reason, after recently setting up my brand new MSI K7N2 (just like 2 hours ago), i'm getting funny static like sound (kinda like a shorting sound, but not quite... hard to describe). At any rate.. it sounds like it's eminating from the motherboard. Now im' not sure why, but it owuld make a raspy static like sound whe im' scrolling the my mouse or when there's heavy hard drive activity. Any ideas why?

 

[Doh!]

Have you installed the latest ALC650 drivers from Realtek? Certain users at nforcershq.com have claimed to resolve the crackling sound problem by updating to the new drivers.

It's not from the sound card or nething.. in fact i disable the on board sound... it's some sound coming from the motherboard itself

Well, guess i figured it out. I left a msg on nForecershq.com and found it that it seems to be a loose cap. Guess i'll be bringing it in tomorrow and getting a new board.
