    Sound Blips n' Skips

    Hey guys, ever since I installed my new HDs and my PCI ATA133 Controller for my add'tl HDs, I've noticed, when I do some intensive HD stuff, like emptying large amounts off my Recycle Bin, or open some big stuff, while playing music, the sound blips or skips ocassionally. Why is that? Do you think it's the card? Maybe I should move the sound card? Let me know what you guys think...

    Good suggestion.. unfortunately the individual devices usually override any BIOS changes. 'Powerstrip' can be used to adjust them though.
