Interesting Problem I've Got Here
As with the other thread that no one replied to, I recently purchased my new motherboard and processor.
Abit NF7-S V2 AMD Athlon XP Barton 2500+ Anyway, whenever I listen to music on my computer, the sound quality is excellent. The motherboard has excellent sound. But, whenever I start typing (i.e. on forums, or a paper, or anything) the sound starts to skip and bleep and tear. My mp3s sound like trash whenever I type. They scratch, skip, bleep and tear constantly whenever I am using the keyboard. Any suggestions? Also, when playing Battlefield 1942, my sound bleeps and scratches also. This problem is more dominant whenever a rocket flys by my face or a truck drives by. Maybe it has something to do with surround sound or something? I don't have surround sound..... I installed the drivers that came with the motherboard. I have the Bose Companion 3® speaker setup. Thanks everyone

ok, I fixed the music clipping problem (so far anyway). I reintalled the drivers, and it's fixed. no idea what was causing the problem.
the BF1942 thing is still messed up though. and I tried enabling Hardware Acceleration and it didn't help.

ok now the mp3s are messing up all the time, whether I am typing or not. and ALL my games are messing up with the sound, not just BF anymore. anyone have any suggestions or heard of the problem?
I reinstalled the motherboard drivers. Didn't help. I'm using the onboard sound.

I suggest to place a heatsink (small northbridge style) on your nforce chip, this fixed some of the problems you are refering to that I had.
The chip overheats, and starts to skip, tear, and etc.

oh I thought you were talking about the chipset.
I didn't realize that chip got hot? if it does get so hot that it messes up my sound, why doesn't it come with a fan and/or heatsink to begin with?
