About every 10 min or so, i get a sound playing.

sounds like a low note on a harpsichord.

"bah baump"

lol

I've closed everything, rebooted, and it still randomly does it.

i thought it was an ad on msn messenger or something but i can't narrow it down.

anyone have a clue or is it happening to you also?


win7 ultimate, legit :)
 
actually, yeah.. mine sounds like its trying to open a program and getting denied. im not sure what it is because i havent divulged into it.however, i have a feeling its because of UAC. i have it turned off and i have a couple of auto-start programs that is "not trusted" mostly hardware monitoring stuff.. so that would be the issue.

let you know what i have time to play with it and find out.
 
man get a mac and call it a day, I was trying to back windows for so long cuz XBOX is great but.......I'm losing faith with the endless spyware and viruses and $$$ I have to keep shelling out for extra protection so I don't end up with a turtle of a comp.....plus the guy who created apple used to be a hacker.......LOL THEY MUST BE IN GOOD HANDS!
 
Have any USB devices turning on and off? Maybe loose or something? Mine make the bum bom! sound when I connect something to a usb port..
 
one of the new laptops we just bought does that, but the other four dont
 
i figured out what mine it.. it was the stupid ass creative labs sound card i had. the driver went bad and it kept trying to "fix" it. i cleaned the drivers and reinstalled it and all is good...
