I own a Scott Voltage yz35 and the chain keeps on jumping and making weird noises, its also not very smooth when you change gears.
What can i do about this, or is it because my whole chain system isnt very good=
thanks in advance

Could be as simple as the gears need reindexing (gear cables stretch). If the bikes getting on a bit it could be down to a stretched chain and worn cassette. Personally I'd check the indexing first. Have a look at the links to Park Tools how tos at the top of this forum.
If the chain has stretched alot you may also need to replace worn chain rings at the front as well, a new chain may not work with thworn rings.It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.
I've bought a new bike....ouch - result
