Does it sound like pink noise at a high pitch which quickly shifts down to a low pitch, all in about one second, sort of like a flyby of a TIE Fighter?

i doubt that it has to do with a eeepc especially. sometimes when i play space or there are explosions around the game plays a really unenjoyable sound resembling something breaking apart/collapsing far too loud that has no connection to the current gameplay.

Could the sound have to do with the sound card, because it only did this yesterday?

I personally think it's the game, unless, of course, we all happen to have the Sound Blaster Live! 24-bit PCI card.

I have this problem too, but I don't think it's because of the sound card. I have the Asus Xonar DX.
I bought it because with my onboard VIA sound, I couldn't hear the announcements like "we've captured a command post" etc...

do you have a problem or do you just want to have a small conversation? because if you have a problem you really really must be more specific!

I really concur :plokoon:

What era mod are you referring to, and does it only happen when playing that era mod or does it happen all the time?
