    I did what the troubleshooting said from the site: "High Proformance" set Windows XP and turned off the onboard sound card in the bios and still i get this random constant clip/popping (its not loud but enough to be distracting and annoying), it happens with all audio, movies/gaming/music. It does not happen when i use the onboard sound card and external speakers. I am using the USB THX plug for the headphones.

    *UPDATE*
    I just did some other tests. I tested the headphones inthe soundcard jacks without the USB THX supplied cable, no clipping/popping came out. so i thought it might be the THX sound card cable, so i loaded the program into my other computer(laptop) and tested it with the THX USB cable no clipping/popping. so i don't think the THX cable or headphones is the prob. I must be getting some conflict with the onboard sound card and the Headphone sound card what do you think?
