No idea! But it doesn't have a clock. I'm sure I've heard this noise on some
PVR playback and then when I tried to record 'open mic', otherwise I hadn't
noticed it!!


The open mic thing is bothering me a bit. The frequency does seem very
low to be picked up by a mic. Are you sure this isn't being generated
in the mic circuit side of things rather than the Argos box? Or with
the wick wound up, can you see the speaker cones jumping in time with
the sound?

Here's another one - I have a Hauppage WinTV card in this machine and have
just tried to install the crappy software (WinTV2000!!??) that came with it.
I might have aerial issues (whenever not?) but is there any better software
available to use with this card before I start crawling about in the loft? I
was using ShowShifter on the old machine but seems to have gone tits up!!




I bought one of those Hauppauge cards a while back - totally screwed
two PCs before I finally threw it where it belonged. It did work once
for about ten minutes, but never kept its channel list when I turned
off.
