'Pop' sound in background

[spionfox]

Every so often I get a 'pop' sound from my computer. I think it is the standard Windows 'start.wav' sound file.

I have run a full AV check and AdAware and Spybot and nothing is showing up. Seemingly no strange processes running either.

Anybody else had this? Any ideas?

Thanks.

Any ideas?

Dial 999

Ask for Bomb Disposal

Put your head between your legs

Kiss your arse goodbye

I always think the smartarse cracks should be restricted to the other forums where they are par for the course. This forum really ought to be for serious answers only.

Perhaps a *sensible* mod could adjudicate :icon_wink

Not running. Thanks anyway.

could be a dodgy hardware driver. This happened to me once with a usb pci card. My pc would ramdomly look for driver updates. Have you looked in Device Manager for the yellow exclamation marks?

I hadn't, but I have now - nothing amiss there.

Thanks anyway.

It is a similar noise, but my browsers are closed at the time.

Unless they can run as a background task even though I have closed them down, yes they are.

Unless 'browsers' means something else in your answer!

My bad, I should have said my browsers WERE closed at the time rather than ARE.

Pedantic bastard :icon_wink
