Annoying clicking sound...

Post by CMcguire »

When i am using internet explorer on vista home premium i keep getting an annoying clicking sound when and browsing (liek changing pages pressing a button etc).. now i am not sure if this is just some stupid vista sound thing or if its buggy drivers.. either way any idea how to get rid of it?

Motherboard is bad axe 2 from intel
Creative X-treme gamer sound card

P.S. i think its something buggy as it sounds more like a static popping/clicking sound rather then some activation sound.. but who knows what crappy stuff microsoft have as defaults...
