Sounds are audible in the speakers at low level which sound almost like
instability, but which vary with hard disk activity. Muting the sound with
Kmix stops the noise.

Can I block these sounds with suppressors, or similar? I don't have any
ferrite suppressors handy at the moment.

I have the same problem with one of my laptops, but not the other. I
don't have that trouble with any of the desktop machines I use. The
laptop that has the trouble doesn't have Windows on it, or I'd see if it
was operating system specific.

I guess I'm not help, other than to say, "me too."

Sorry....
