Echo on Audio playback

Recently I have had an annoying echo (reverb?) on all media playback, this includes legit dvd's, mpeg's, avi's, gameplay and mp3 (allough not noticable unless someone is talking)
Any help on how I can resolve this would be very welcome, as its very annoying.
I wish i could give more info, but im not sure what I have done that could have caused it. The only things I can remember doing before the incident occured were installing DivX codec (and i'm almost certain playback was fine after doing so) and installing a game that uses EAX sound effects (which i think was the first time i noticed the echo)
Any ideas? I had no luck on google either
Thanks,
Rob |

could well be something soundcards do to create "fake" surrourd sound, they add a sligh echo to the sound and aperently it makes it sound like its coming from more than 2 speakers, when its just 2.
what sound card you got? fire up the soundards controll pannel software and try seeing if there are any options to turn it on and off. |

yeah been looking through the settings, not that there is a great deal to set, but with no luck.
It's driving me insane, i'll keep plugging away.
Your suggestion may well be right, only i dont have a dedicated sound card (with this being a laptop I'm assuming it's an onboard soundcard) hence i doubt i have the luxury of those sort of features |

check inside the game for any possible settings
also try this
controll pannel - sounds and audio devices - advanced button in the speakers and heapphones area, and set to 2 desktop speakers or headphones |

no luck i'm afraid with either.
The only answer google has hinted at is a "karaoke" effect, where if a speaker is not properly connected you get an echo. Is this possible?
If so, is it possible that a connection has come loose inside my laptop and is causing the echo, because i didn't change any settings and it just happened one day.
I hope not:mad: |
