I don't know what caused it but a high pitch sound is heared through my speakers when my cpu is ''loaded'' or the drives are busy.I know it's normal but the volume of it is inexplainably high and annoying!It may be a malfunction of the on-board sound chipset...
Any ideas?

Well the sound is heard even when my drives aren't busy.I tried another set of speakers but it didn't work.Even the second ticking from the internal clock is heard if I turn the volume up a bit more!
The only way then is by buying a pci sound card ?
ps:What is the EMF?
