Philips Acoustic Edge - Popping/Hissing/Crackling problems

Hello - i've had this sound card for several months now and been very annoyed by the Hissing/Popping/Crackling happening in all parts of windows. Games, CD Audio, mp3's, doesn't matter. I've reinstalled windows (XP Pro) used the latest drivers, dloaded newest versions of Windows Media Player, WinAmp 2 (I dont like 3), ATI Multimedia Center (ATI Video card) and the same problem exists. I can't figure it out.

The only thing that I think MIGHT be it, is i'm using a very cheap set of speakers - like 30 dollar speakers.

Any ideas?

What are your system specs? Could be some driver issue, or the cheap speakers. I have used the Acoustic Edge for quite some time with WinXP Pro, and have no issues. (Klipsch ProMedia? 4.1)

Never got a chance to buy my nice speakers - I got fired and haven't found a replacement job that would allow me to purchase such things 🙂
