Problems with new sound card

[schrepfer]

Hi there,

i've a problem with my new sound card: everytime i stream a movie on the internet i hear a strange noise. when i watch a video which is saved on my own computer it doesn't appear. Some guy in another forum told me that it's because my Wi-Fi USB flash drive (USB controller) uses the same IRQ than the PCI slot of my sound card. But now i put the card in another slot and it's still happening, even though there are now no more other devices on this new IRQ.

Does anyone have a clue, what the problem is?

Sound card: Speed-Link SL-8871-SRD-A, 7.1 PCI Audio Card
OS: Windows 7
Driver: newest Win 7 driver
example of the failure (was recorded with an external mic): http://schrepfer.bplaced.net/test.wav

best wishes

Welcome to the forum schrepfer, we're not ignoring you, just you have a puzzler. I myself googled extensively and no help. I'll put this question to the Gurus, see if we can get you some help. A Guy

What motherboard do you have?

Something is running high in the backgroung, such an AV...check your System Manager and see all the process.

The problem didn't exist before the new card, right?

I suggest returning the card and getting a replacement.

+1 This sounds like a bad sound card (pun intended)

You might want to plug the older card and see if it's still happenning, to be sure before returning the new card if it's defective.
