If you don't want to reinstall Windows 7, you don't want to fix the problem. It is the only way to be certain that all virus contaminations are cleared.

Yes it is, but at current there are lots of files on my computer and i m out on spare external hd, but ultimately i have to go that route, thanks for response though!

It's actually unlikely that this has got anything to do with a virus. I suggest you try using Skype, see if anyone can hear you over that. If you have made sure that there are no infections on your computer, try booting into Ubuntu or another Live CD OS, and try a skype call or something on there, if that works then maybe there's a problem with Windows, but the crackling sounds to me like it may be something to do with hardware failure, as opposed to a software fault.

Thanks, actually using live cd for ubuntu sounds like a great idea, i have 1 with me.

Welcome to the wonderful world of pirate software - 1 reason not to do it. Your PC could be Rooted, or now accessible to a botnet or such.

There is always viable software out there without the need to resort to pirating it. If its an OS issue take it up with the vendor AND always make sure you have your backup disks handy and any keyfiles for your software is backed up.

I myself have had to install my system 3 times in as many months sue to hardware failure and now have my keyfiles safely backed up in the cloud so I know I won't loose them. Also backup disks are in the same place i keep my important documents so I know I wont need to worry about them.
