Do i need a new sound card?

Question

Hi,

my pc was custom built so i have no manufacture name

so having difficulty trying to find the best drivers to install,

when i insert a dvd or cd the sound is (for want of a better description)

warbley, as if gargling with water. no matter what program i use (media player, realplayer, power dvd)

but, after ripping a cd to my library the sound is fine

you tube and google videos play fine.

even downloaded videos play perfectly.

any idea what the problem is?

i tried realtek sound card, but no difference.

any help would be great.

Answer 1

Has the CD drive EVER sounded ok?

Could be the thing is defective.

If your psu is not enough wattage to support all your hardware it may be dragging.

Answer 2

put the cd that u got with ur motherboard .If u've lost it read the manual it'll tell u where to get drivers from..

If all this does not solve the problem then u can cunsult a tech person and he''ll do the needful .Or u can just by a Soundcard..
