    Computer help for friends

    My friends have been complaining that their pc's have a problem. It makes a buzzing sound and lags for a few second at random times.
    This happens randomly and occurs while watching movies, playing games and listening to music.

    They all got different laptops (2) and a freshly bought desktop.

    Anyone has any experience with it?

    I might add the desktop started making the noise after 2 months.

    I'm under the impression nobody replied, because your explanation of the problem is extremely vague.

    What exactly makes the buzzing? The computers? (all of them?) The speakers? Are you saying all four (yours and theirs) are now making this buzzing noise and having lag pauses?

    My computer doesn't have the problem, only theirs. We have no clue what causes it. The buzzing comes from the sound stuttering/lagging like crazy aswell as the whole pc in general during that time.

    What is actually physically making the sound though, the computer tower itself, or sound from the speakers? And all three computers are having this exact same problem?

    They have the exact same problem and as I said, it's not the computers making the sound, it's coming out of the speakers because there's sound playing during games, movies,... and then it begins to lag heavily causing the audio to make that buzzing sound.

    You could try disabling the wireless adapter, and see if that changes things (it is a known cause to buzzing).

    But would that fix the horrible lagspikes tho? It's not the pc that makes the buzzing, the buzzing comes from the sound that lags like hell.
