all of a sudden my sound on second life has alot of static, i dont have any programs in the background playing music or anything that would cause this.
the sound keeps breaking up and i dunno how to fix it so it sounds normal again.....its like listening to a radio station and hearing interception.
anyone got any ideas why all of a sudden i hear static in the game?

There's no way to help unless you list your system specs. For starters, what sound card do you have? What driver version? What OS are you using?

Same here, Jonka. Have a look at /327/1f/299888/1.html

It doesn't solve the problem (yet), but may give you a few pointers.
