Audio Warble
Anytime sound comes of my computer - speakers or headphones - every so often the music will warble slighty and then go back to normal, like it's going through interference. No matter what the audio source, the warble happens every minute or two.
Is there anything I can do to fix it?
I have a Dell Dimension E521 which is running on Vista.

The FAQ at the top of this forum has a lot of things to try. I would start by running the hardware tests available via F12 at boot time. I nothing shows up there download and reinstall your audio drivers.
There are several Vista posts with sound problems and solutions.
Here is that FAQ address:

Thanks. I did some playing around, and I think the problem is with my newly installed wireless USB (RangeMax Next Wireless-N USB 2.0 Adapter). If I unplug it from my computer, my audio is fine. But if I plug it in, then it gets weird. How can I fix this so I can listen to audio that's online (music, podcasts, etc)?

I'm on a Dell Dimension E521 Desktop running Vista with a RangeMax Next Wireless-N USB 2.0 Adapter.
I noticed that when the adapter is plugged in, it interferes with the sound coming out of my computer. But if I unplug it, it's fine.
This is the first time ever I've using wireless with this computer, and when I bought the adapter, I researched it to make sure it was compatible with vista and that it had good reviews and ratings.
I tried uninstalling the Netgear software and then reinstalling it. But it didn't help. I have no idea what other steps to take. Not knowing anything about Wi-Fi, is there something I can download? Or where can I go to get more help with this?
