problems with volume and distortion

2004-06-02 Thread Joanne
First, no matter how many times I set volume the play control volume keeps
going to zero instead of staying at 50%.

Second, when the PC is turned up (even a little) there's a bad humming sound
and Jaws is distorted.  I checked my speakers and it doesn't look to me like
there's really a short; just this hum and this speech distortion.  I've
re-started and tried Jaws 4 and 5, and whether playing music or reading
there's a hiss when turned down and this sound when turning up the volume
that sounds like when someone's talking into a mike and gets feedback.  Is
there a place, maybe in programs, that should be looked at as far as PC
sound?  Thanks.
