I wasn't, they were on seperate circuts, just next to each other. I am blaming the problem on my speakers now because I still hear the noise and they are not by anything that I think could cause interrferance.

What kind of sound card? Could just be mr. hankey the christmas poo wrapped in a box and labeled "soundcard".
I'm using a SB Audigy 2 ZS... so I don't think this is the problem to be honest.

Also I came back to this thread because a new problem... I was just listening to music, running AIM, and on this forum (that was all that was running), when all the sudden my speakers made a HORRIBLE noise. It was like crackling/buzzing/pops/etc. I immediately shut off my computer and restarted. My question is, could this be a sign of an unstable PC. I was OCing but only from 2200MHz to 2500MHz ( not a big OC at all). I'm doubting that is the problem because when I restarted and immediately restored my OC (2200MHz), now I can't adjust my volume using SB. The remote doesn't work, none of the nobs/buttons on it work but the power light is on, and the CMSS (an option you can turn on/off for surround sound through SB) light is on. I have a 500 Watt PSU, so I don't think its a power issue, but I could be wrong. Any suggestions?
