Hey,

I heard static coming out of my speakers if I listened closely on my desktop pc. I then tested if the speakers are working fine on my laptop and I again heard static coming so I thought the speakers are broken.

Then my cousin borrowed me her speakers and I plugged them in my desktop pc and they worked fine without any static.

But... next day I was listening to some music with these speakers on a laptop and after I plugged them back in in the desktop pc I am hearing static again !! I then plugged them back into laptop to test if its just my desktop pc and there is static too. I don`t know what to do now. It`s like my desktop pc broke both speakers somehow. Can I fix this static somehow?

Edit: All fixed. Well except my speakers.
 
Solution
Typically the 3.5mm jacks on laptops and desktops have a lot of electrical noise. If they are simple stereo speakers then get a cheap USB to 3.5mm adapter, it will help alot.
