Doe's anybody have any ideas how to fix this or am I better off just pluging in a soundblaster card. TIA Marc KM5KW Try one of the alternative drivers. Raffaele's is the one that worked for me (the default driver--snd-intel8x0-- had the same symptoms as yours). You might get sound out of the driver your using if you set for 8 bit sound instead of 16 bit, too. Anyway, my driver is the OSS i810_audio Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Doe's anybody have any ideas how to fix this or am I better off just pluging in a soundblaster card. I'm using the same Intel 810 chipset without problems. Could distorted sound be caused by too high volume? What application are you using to play sound? What files are you playing? You are not giving many details, I'll just throw some info here: lsmod on my system gives ... i810_audio 25692 0 ac97_codec 15828 0 [i810_audio] soundcore 6340 0 [i810_audio] /etc/modules.conf contains: alias sound-slot-0 i810_audio bye, raffaele Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
