    I get noise on my car audio system, that will only disable when I turn off the car. What could be the cause.

    This noise could be picked up through power connection, from either the alternator, or ignition.

    I would suggest you install a 12 volt noise filter between the power tap, and power input on your car audio.

    @Jroberts, I think the radio wattage is too low, to drive the speakers. You can try use a car amplifier, to increase the radio's power.

    I lost my station memories in my car radio, when I turned the car off. What could be the cause?

    @RyanF, I think the tuner wire is not connected properly. You need to connect the yellow wire to your vehicle's positive terminal or to a fuse.

    I'd be tempted to try and shield the M-Audio 1010 card, and/or change the pci slot if it helps distance it. Or if it's the proximity of the PSU - shield that.

    The noise source tho could be a handful of things that u would have to deduce from a process of elimination.

    If it's just a workstation, u may consider putting a weaker gfxcard in there. I found them to emit quite a bit. Find something that's silly-cheap, I mean u can get £10 pcie cards if u look long enough - they'll just display.
