    It's one of the bugs left by Dynamix in the game. It seems less likely to occur if you lock CPU affinity.

    See http://www.tribesnext.com/forum/index.php/topic,473.0.html for instructions on doing that.

    Setting the sound card rate to 22KHz will reduce the hash and their intensity and I am betting you will never notice the difference in audio quality. That being said, if you set the rate to 11KHz and don't notice how bad the game then sounds you are likely deaf. And like Thyth said, running the game on one core seems to get rid of the issue. The tribesnext folks didn't change the game by the way, they just made it playable again.

    K looks like setting affinity to only 1 CPU Always solves it thanks
