Can anyone tell me how to fix that extremely loud, annoying, shake me out of my' couch "Skreech Static"? I'm not the smartest computer guy, so, a nice, simple solution is needed. I can't really navigate the computer, but I can play me some Civ, so, please...
thanx

Try reinstalling. Perhaps a file was corrupted on the initial install.

Or turn off your speakers. That'd work real quick. ;)
