[QUOTE="Ruud, post: 283593, member: 10538"] Hello Entrecour, thanks for your input. Nice reading in the provided links. Just did a quick test by powering the amp via another power outlet then the one the PC is hooked up onto (as suggested in one of the articles): this reduces the volume of the sound to approximately half, but still to an annoying level. De-plugging the vga cable from the video card doubles the volume of the sound so it is definitely VGA card related. Sound kicks in when windows is in its startup screen (with the 'slider' going from left to right (think that thats the point where the drivers are loaded). Will do some more reading and experimenting tomorrow and will definitely do a bug report to nvidia and to the manufacturer of the video card: they position this card in the fanless HTPC arena so this is a serious show stopper. anyway thanks for your effort, i will follow up with more results. If you have any more ideas, please do not hesitate etc. ;) Thanks, Ruud. [/QUOTE]
