So I got a new CPU, an AMD, so I bought a new mother and so on and installef latst Zorin OS on my SDD, everything works fine but I hear distorted sound and they layer on top of each other, like, the same sound starts repeating and causing more distortion. I tried doing some stuff with Alsamixer but to no avail, whst to do?

    Might be worth trying a bunch of different live USBs to find a distribution with a working sound setup, and then seeing what it’s doing differently compared to Zorin

      This is always a decent idea, I distro hopped until I found one which worked with my workflow best. From a quick search it seems like Zorin is similar to Mint as its focus is to make switching from iOS/Windows easier. I highly recommend trying Fedora!! After trying ~7 distro’s, each for at least 2 months, Fedora/Nobara for me were the most well rounded while also having a solid sized community to aid with questions when they arise.

        Hello, sorry for taking so long to reply, life’s been pretty shit lately. I did follow everyone’s advice and tried another distro’s through a bootable live USB, since it worked I reinstalled Linux and it works now.

        • All good and hope things turn around soon. Be sure to keep your head up as its worth it even just for the little things in life.

          What distro did you end up switching too?

            I usually use elementary but I want to try Pop OS to give it a try, I like elementary better honestly.
