sometimes my laptop starts making wierd sounds.  out of the speakers (originally i thought it was my hard drive which had my really scared).  it keeps makin this wierd repetetive sound like it has a bee stuck in it.  so far, it happens when im downloading a lot of stuff, or when im playing Legend of Kyrandia.

i managed to capture the sound

are you kidding me? its a stupid annoying pop up ad. it may be in a banner of a website you have running, it may be AOL instant messenger. your computer isnt having problems.

silly bloke.  :P

- No, I mean it's really STUCK. Like adventure-game stuck.

if you have AIM check to see if someone you know signs on when the sound happens

Deja vu.

Annoying as hell, isn't it? 

This thread is where I had the same exact noise (delay of around 5 seconds between, right?): http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=19478.0

My resolution might've been the right one, or it may've just self-resolved.  Good luck, and I wouldn't mind hearing how you resolve it.  It's happened to me once more since that thread but a simple restart fixed it.

yeah, it's annoying.  yeah, about a 5 second interval.

it doesnt do it most of the time, fortunately.

I do get annoying interference sometimes from other things, too...like the state of the mouse buttons being pressed etc will control the noise coming from the speakers

Hah, I was talking to my sister through voice chat the other day, and I though it was feedback.

... I hate annoying ads.
