cristianokeller Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Hi there, I'm experiencing some high pitched noises when I connect my Virus Snow synthesizer to my hackintosh using USB. I can hear the mouse moving, the scrolling of the websites, the flash applications... Annoying, and in a music studio it's unacceptable! Someones told me that installing a dedicated PCI USB Card can solve this problem. But I've found only one king of card in my city/country: It's a PCI 32 Bit 33MHz card with NEC chipset. It will work on my hackintosh specifications? I'm on a i7, GA-X58A-UD3R, 6 GB RAM running OSX 10.6.2 64 bit! Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peach-os Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 it´s a common issue that appears randomly. the only way to solve it is to change the IRQ´s - hence the advice with an extra usb pci card makes sense, because you could try it in different slots - but this is still not guaranteed that it will work !

But the PCI 32 Bit 33MHz card will work on my Snow Leopard 10.6.2 64 bit? How do I change the IRQ? I'm becoming mad with this noise, I need to make my music, please help anyone!

peach-os Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 iionce more........usually the system assigns different IRQ´s to each slot itself - therefore trying different slots could help. I guess that any USB PCI card should work - but you never know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peach-os Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 once again - the system does it - you can´t switch IRQ´s only way to make the system changing the IRQ´s is trying different slots..............but it´s still gambling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
