Getting weird noises when connecting to front AC97 jack. It seems to have something to do with my wireless peripherals, because when clicking/typing on my wireless mk the "noises" change.

I assumed it was interference so I disconnected both mouse and keyboard and turned them off, but the problem continued. I have also tried disabling all other sound devices, installing different audio drivers, and using HD Audio instead of AC97.

The back audio port works fine however my 3.5mm extension broke so I am using the front jack.

this is normal , cheap on board chips make noise if you are using front .. it is bad shielding.
