I see delvinv you have an ati video card, so you should try to disable Powerplay function (PowerMizer is the corrispective nvidia feature). You'll find how on google i think.

so are you saying, if i do that the noise will disappear for everyone having problems with realtek?

and if so, how does the video card have to do wit hthe sound? sorry just curious

I just noticed that the mp3 reproduction get significantly worse when i have a web browser (ie firefox, explorer etc) opened...(in fact many ppl in the other thread give the fault to the wireless device)
After some days of research with google i saw that that kind of svga features (PowerPlay and PowerMizer) are bad implemented in Windows Seven: i saw with gpu-z that when the svga changes his clock (due to energetic save) all the system "lags" and the audio "pops".
After i disabled the PowerMizer feature finally all worked fine...i hope you can solve it too

Google is truly a good friend.

with a simple search i managed to find a forum where there is a walkthrough to disabling powerplay. since it involved a lot of steps, i have procrastinated it to this saturday.

once done i will update all of you here and possibly mark this thread as solved (Hopefully)

thanks for a great discovery.

I see disabling PowerPlay is not as easy as disabling PowerMizer (somebody talks about flashing the card bios..).
I hope you'll manage to, otherwise you have to wait for a decent driver for Seven

true. flashing bios, installing ATI's software Catalyst, XML files etc .
hopefully it will be worth it.
yeah im waiting for a windows 7 driver for realtek, even tho the realtek.com.tw website says they have a win7 driver.

hi everyone,

im facing the same problem too. none of the Realtek driver seems to work for me and im quite desperate already.

its always a good idea to start a new thread. anyways the solution is simple. since you are running nvidia, disable your graphic cards' powermizer feature, just google search "disable powermizer", you will get the solution.

it seems like my ati doesnt have the override function so i cannot disable powerplay on ati radeon cards
