Hello, just today I noticed my computer's audio occasionally makes pops or crackles on either one of the speakers while I'm listening to any sound. I know it's not just the speakers, because I also have headphones that are plugged into my keyboard's audio jacks, and they also get the same popping and crackling problems when I listen through them. It leads me to believe that it is a software/sound card issue.
This started happening since I flashed my motherboard, which was an attempt to fix some GPU issue I was having (which didn't end up fixing it, I fixed that with a simple tweak in the NVIDIA control panel...).
I have installed the latest Realtek audio drivers, and even tried installing my motherboard's audio drivers again from the website, tried adjusting settings, but still no luck. Every minute or so, and in some cases every couple of minutes, I get a crackle or pop-like noise in my audio. Not intensely annoying, but annoying enough, and I don't want any little issues like this in my computer.
Any ideas?
