RE: Interference Noise

Newbie,

This issue most certainly isn't a Vista issue. However, I'm not there to
hear the noise, so I can only guess. If it only happens in visually intense
situations, then you could probably blame it on, most likely, the fan on your
GPU or CPU. Try to determine exactly where the noise is coming from. The
stock coolers on some systems can get noisy under any kind of load, etc.

You simply have to do more troubleshooting on your issue to pin it down.
It's pretty hard to diagnose this from a distance. I gave it my best shot.
