I downloaded sound card, now humming?

Question

I had to download the sound card from Dell because I deleted the first one, oops. Now that I have it downloaded my speakers are humming very loudly!

Why are they humming, and how long will it do that?

Thanks so much!

Answer 1

You downloaded drivers, not a sound card.  The sound card is a physical piece of hardware in your computer.  My guess is that either your speakers aren't connected properly (or are receiving interference from something), or you downloaded the wrong drivers

Answer 2

First guess would be that you got the wrong driver.Second guess would be you have a mic plugged in and turned on.

Answer 3

You did NOT download a sound card.  A sound card is a physical piece of equipment that is installed in your computer.

If you can tell us what you REALLY did, perhaps we can help you.
