DieBarbarian Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 So.. when i scroll.. i get this wierd static/high pitch noise from the mobo.. just using the scroller.. then if i'm in game same wierd noise kicks in.. Wierd part is it just started happening..onboard speaker isn't hooked up.. cant quite figure it out.. non of the fans are the cause.. just wierd that it only happens in games or when i utulize the scroller on my mouse.. heh tips would be appericiated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
friskies Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 I had exactly the same thing, when scrolling and running games, prime etc. It was actually the PSU making the noises. Some of the circuitry makes squelchy noises when under heavy load/load changes. Scratched my head for weeks trying to figure out why my computer made clicking noises when using the mouse`s scroll wheel heh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieBarbarian Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 So one might wonder why it suddenly started hapening.. its not something that i just "noticed".. its rather annoying to be honest.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
boatasiaus Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 You need to update your sig to include PSU Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

watsonte Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 Yeah its elctronic noise normally caused by the intermixing of High and low volatge wires.......thats the best I could offer from experience with much larger machines and power supplies...im and Electrical Engineer and work on control systems for large industrial machines and we hear that kind of thing all the time if wires are mixed together.....I wouldnt know exactly why your PSU would make this same noise but like the one person said it was a PSU issue and in my opinion is your PSU...

Takoma Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 Staticy noise could also be your southbridge chipset. ;P Take Care Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieBarbarian Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 So anyways, i thought i would let ya know it's not the PSU the sound is coming from the chipset or around that area.. although its not any of the fans.. so who knows.. maybe its time to get this RMA'd..
