The sound on my computer has gone crazy. One minute it was fine, the next minute, everything went really echoey and distorted.

It sounds almost like I'm in a huge music hall and everything is echoing off the roof and walls, but at the same time someone is attempting to play an electric guitar with a frazzled amp and way too MUCH overdrive.

It's like this for every single sound my computer MAKES, and it's now impossible to listen to a song properly or speak to someone online.

Does anybody know what might have caused this or how it could be fixed?forgot to say, my card is an intel graphics media accelerator 900, and I'm using windows xp, pentium 4.

I don't think it's to do with the speakers at all, I've tried using headphones and two different sets of speakers and it doesn't make any difference.
