Thanks for the info and suggestions Sajeel. I'm not in a position where I can make those changes to the floor. But when I get new carpet I'll certainly take your suggestions into consideration! Thanks again!!

Thanks for your response Sajeel. It's a common studded wall. 2X4 top, bottom and studs 16" apart. The wall is also anchored to the cement floor with anchor nails and to the trusses with nails. The main level floor is common plywood/chipboard flooring.

i just installed a wall in my basement and now the main level floor creeks. Will this settle and stop creeping? If not, how can I fix it without tearing down the wall just to shave 1/16th of an inch and put it back up.
