Hi. I've bought nice looking CT2760. Drivers detect the card fine but whenever I try to play any sound or music, I can hear only buzzing. When I exit a game buzzing stops. Sometimes I can somewhat hear the music in the buzzing (like in the menu in Wolf3D or Duke3D when AWE32 synth is selected). Applies for both Speaker and Line out. Sound effects are just pure buzzing.
Tried to look at the card with magnifying glass but haven't found any significant damage. After installing SB32 CT3620 the sound worked fine so it's definitely a problem with the card. I've tested in in two systems, based around 486 and Pentium II CPUs.
I'd like to ask if there is someone who experienced the same symptoms? There are a lot of caps which could go bad and I could replace them one by one I would rather ask first here. Is it for example possible that the CT1745 mixer chip died? Thanks for any input!
The photo in the link is just some I've found online, it's not the card I have. Looks the same though.
