Weird sounds from our computer speakers

August 17, 2007 by Tricia

I think I’ve got to move somethings further away from my desktop computer. It’s really strange. If I happen to turn our cellphone on or off when I’m within a few feet from our computer our the computer speakers make a weird do do do boop boop noise. It’s kind of an alien sound.

The speakers have power going to them, but I always have them turned off because I hate it when I hit a website with autoplay music or video so I only turn the speakers on when I really want to hear something. I can only imagine what kind of sound the speakers would make when I turn the cell phone on if the volume was turned on!

I think they need better EMI Shielding or something. I have no idea why the cell phone and speakers interact that way.

The other strange thing that happens is the infrared controller on our desktop computer (it has a remote but I almost never use it) flashes on and off when we use the cable remote for our TV. As in when we are changing channels on the TV. Weird eh?

Does your computer do anything strange when you’re cell phone or other electronics are near it?
