Hi, I have a weird issue with my SB Live card (the $42 model). I've noticed a humming sound at times, even with the computer turned off.When I turn up the volume on the speaker (computer off, mind you) I hear a radio station on top of the humming sound. The computer is a P3, 933, Asus CUV4x board....
