Problem with audio crackling or static on a PC.
Problem with audio crackling or static on a PC.
Hello everyone, it's not clear where to share this issue. A few months ago I purchased a PC, but it has since become a major problem. My headphones or speakers keep crackling with static or making noise, especially when using USB or a jack. This causes the computer to slow down and freeze, forcing me to disconnect and reconnect them. My warranty has been used four times already, and even the motherboard was sent to MSI, but they just said everything is functioning properly. Could there be any external factors affecting my system? I've tried all possible fixes—updated drivers, rolled back software, turned off audio enhancements, disabled certain audio devices, reinstalled components, checked cables, used Latencymon, and even reinstalled Windows. I'm running out of options and would really appreciate some guidance.
