I just built a computer with the MSI Neo4 with the onboard Creative 24-bit. Everything works fine, I've got the speakers plugged in, but when I try to play something, I get incredible distortion. Popping, etc, the sound is not even bearable. I've installed the latest drivers, monkeyed with the settings, nothing can get the sound clear. What can I do?
EDIT//
As a side note, I have some REALLY old Microsoft Sound System 80 speakers, which have the ability to run off USB, and they work perfectly, but as soon as I try to plug them into the rear LINE OUT port, it gets distorted and pops like crazy.
