I have just built a new computer using many standard makers like ASUS and HP
with a logitech wireless keyboard and mouse combo. I am having the weirdest
and most aggravating problem.

When ever I hit keys on my keyboard (especially certain keys like the
up/down arrows, or the scroll wheel) the sounds from my sound card get
interrupted (very hard on my MP3 library). There are no IRQ conflicts, I
have made adjustments to the keyboard delay in Control panel, I have swapped
out the keyboard and mouse for standard ones and i have even swapped the
sound card but still nothing.

What could possibly be going wrong????

What motherboard/chipset is it?

What Sound Card? And I take it the different sound card had the same
problem?

When you changed the keyboard, was it wired? Are they PS2 or USB?

What OS?

Thats a pretty strange one. I wouldn't expect an IRQ conflict with the
keyboard.

Does the sound skip every time you press a key?

I very much doubt it's a problem with the keyboard or PS2 port, you seem to
have ruled out the sound card istself.

I can't really think of what could be the problem... I'd be tempted to make
sure I had the latest chipset and sound drivers installed, othe rthen that I
might remove all the drives and let it redetect.

Thanks for nothing.

that was rude, Ben helps lots of people here, if a person doesn't have a
exact answer what you want them to do lie to you or give you something you
want to hear?

here's a few things that you might want to check...

IRQ Routing (my VIA MVP3 chipset has a problem that requires me to install a
driver for that, after a fresh windows installation, before certain devices
will work properly)

PCI Latency (my Creative SBLive! card does pretty much a similar thing until
I install a driver for that... i can usually find it on a search for
"GREESE")

ummm... do a general search involving sound and your chipset...
(and keep us updated...)
