When my PC card is passing traffic, the speakers in my laptop buzz. What is the issue?
A. This issue occurs because of an inadequate shield around the PC Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA) socket itself. The radio energy of the card passing traffic leaks into the speakers because it is not sufficiently contained in the card socket, and manifests as a buzz in the speakers. The problem is with the socket, not the card. Resolution comes from the manufacturer of the laptop because the manufacturer did not shield the socket.
