I just upgraded my computer
Got new case/psu, cpu, mobo, ram, hd
currently using windows vista ultimate 64bit

Whenever I move my mouse my computer makes weird static noise.
Its not coming from speaker, its coming directly from desktop.
I thought it was motherboard(had asus 780v board) so swaped to a 780gxe board(asrock)
But its making same noise.
I tried unplugging my harddrive while in windows but noise didnt stop.

It start to make noise when booted to windows. No noise in bios.
Is this mean my power supply? or is it normal?

x2 7750 kuma
OCZ 4gig 1066 mem
antec 380 earth watt power supply.

Only thing I could think of is power supply but its weird that I'm getting this noise when booted to windows.
 
onboard sound

Could be, try disabling it in the BIOS and see if this fixes it. Although my Corsair 550VX actually makes a long high-pitched noise right after I turn off my PC. I'm not sure what it is attributed to as the fan is not running while this is occurring. I'll find out one day when it explodes I guess.
 
Maybe your mouse is trying to escape?


side note : can u pinpoint where its coming from? It may be the cd drive, maybe the case speaker, maybe a fan etc.
 
wow, that sounds weird.

I'm wondering if it's the motherboard switching regulator noise, becoming audible with increased CPU?? (the same noise heard from newer video cards)

You could test that theory by running 3DMark. Increased CPU and VGA load during 3DMark usually makes those regulators squeal pretty loud. If you hear the same noise emitted, and aren't touching the mouse, then you'd know.
 
... another thought.
Is your mouse RF wireless??

If so, it could be some weird RF interference.
You could try switching to a corded mouse to test.
