This is weird, when ever I use the scroll wheel my mouse or a web page is loading I hear this "low static buzz" don't know a better way to describe it.

An example, when I scroll in Google (up and down) it sounds like "brrt, brrt" sort a (lowish but audible) .

Thought it might have something to do with "a" component not being earthed/grounded properly, but how the hell to check that?.

Asus Rampage Formula, Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty FPS, ATI HD 4870x2, Razor Barracuda headphones.

Cheers guys!.

from my experience i'd advice to throw the creative card to the sea and try again
if that's not an option, try different versions of soundcard drivers
though, being creative, they're all shite - but this is the easiest to try
see if any irqs are overlapping and fiddle with pci latencies
try switch soundcard to a different pci slot - one that doesn't share it's irq with anything that could mess with sound (mobo manual lists pci slot irqs)

oh, and you sure you have motherboard chipset drivers installed? usb chipset drivers?

I have all the latest drivers etc, actually installed the chipset drivers again last night just to be sure.

Could try to move it to another slot...but I read that this can happen if the PSU is not grounded properly (how the F is one supposed to fix that).

Check this thread out (the guy have exactly same headphones as me)

But 1st I will install VISTA 64bits here. Could be that after a clean install it goes away...probably not but anyhow.

This happens when there are voltage irregularities in the system (same can happen in laptops for instance, when the CPU is changing steppings). I had this with my last CPU (A64 4000+) when it would buzz slightly when the CPU was doing hard work. I guess you either get used to it and live with it, or get rid of the headphones and start using speakers... I tried the latter, but found the former easier... Wink
