I recently got a leftover Audigy (not used) from a friend of mine, and just slapped it into my system a few days ago. Paid $30 for it. Nothing comes with it, I just had the card in a static bag. Well, so I go to download the drivers off the web, and there are like 4-5 different versions of Audigy drivers. My card just says "Audigy" on it, and nothing else. No ES, no Gamer, no any other of those. My friend told me to just pick the gamer drivers, so I did. Got my sound up and working, but now my speakers emit this almost screeching beep every 5-10 minutes. It's driving me crazy. Did I install the wrong drivers or did my friend give me a shafted card?
Any input would be appreciated :\
*Edit*
I did disable my onboard sound prior to installing the card. That shouldn't be the problem. I've actually more or less pinpointed the problem, in a limited scope. It will screech/beep at me a lot especially when I'm using AIM and talking to someone. To test this, I opened up a window and IMed myself repeatedly, and got lots of screeching beeping noises coming back. Anyone know what's going on here?
