Re: This annoying noise in our speakers
Hey, Dana, Larry, Talksina and anyone I've accidentally forgotten! Nope, I'm not having that JAWS problem, although I do think I know what you're talking about. I use my computer's soundcard for JAWS only, but I do remember when JAWS was coming through an external card one time that it had this odd echo effect. Anyway, I will continue to see what components might be the culprit, but I have very little attached to the sound card. I do use a (shoot, can't think of the name of this thing) a bass booster system (I know that's not the right name) with my speakers, and my theory is that this might be the offender. I don't know why, but that's my current guess. It is soo annoying! I don't think some motor or generator could be the cause unless something around the house has changed that I don't know about, which is, of course, entirely possible.

Re: This annoying noise in our speakers
Is there an electro-magnetic motor anywhere nearby, in or out of your house/apartment: electric generator, car motor, etc. Something like that could be inducing a current in your speaker wires. That's probably a long-shot. But it's the first thing that comes to mind, given your description, especially if it's more of what I would call a clicking (rather than tapping) sound.

I don't think it's our new SB Live 24 bit soundcard (thanks, Dana!). It's this rapid pulsing sound, probably caused by interference from something, but we can't figure out what. Any takers?

But I had to spawn the two instances by pressing my winamp shortcut twice. The ctrl-n technique that Martina mentioned doesn't seem to work for me, unless I'm misunderstanding something. Listening to Phantom of the Opera and Phil Ochs simultaneously is rather hard on the ear. But it DOES work.
