sounds is draaagged out

[Boggin]

like the title says, i listen to music and the sound gets almost draged out in an up and down motion, if you know what i mean, so when i try to listen to ac/dc is sounds like some classic Oak Ridge Boys music, lol

any ideas on how this randomly happened? is my speakers shot?

It is either your speakers, sound card, or both are toast, or you need to update the driver for your sound card.

thanks man, and how can i check to see if its my sound card?
i wish i could record how it sounds and post it here

 

[mjonesjr]

Try it in another PC?

 

[Boggin]

hook up the speakers to another one?

 

[mjonesjr]

Hook the speakers and sound card up in another PC and see if it still does it. If it does, remove the speakers and use another pair. If it still does it, then it is your sound card.

 

[Boggin]

so how do i access the sound card?
thanks

 

[mjonesjr]

Never mind, if you don't know how to get the sound card out, then take it to someone who can help you.

 

[Boggin]

well if it isnt that hard id be willing to screw it up, lol

 

[mjonesjr]

Can you post a picture of the back of your PC, the side where all the cords go into it? I will be able to tell you if you have a removable sound card.

Some sound devices are built into the mother board and can't be removed without damaging the mother board.

 

[Boggin]

mmmm damaging

well i wont do it if the card is in the mother board, but ill try to get you a pic

[mjonesjr]

Your pictures don't work.

 

[Boggin]

these work?

 

[mjonesjr]

Yes.

You need to take the side off the case to remove the sound card. Once it is off, you will see how to get it out. It is real simple.
