Hello all,

Just got my studio 15 laptop from dell...against my better judgements...and the speakers turned out to be predictably horrid. Tried the online tips (removing the IDT audio driver and using the windows HD one), Called dell's support service, and the repair technician insisted that there was nothing wrong with the speakers. Yet my husband and I can clearly hear annoying metallic humming noises, especially at higher frequencies and volume , both from windows' system sound samples, and an audio CD. My old inspiron 6400 actually does better on this front...

Anybody having similar problems? Any suggestions as to how to fix it? Or ways to squeeze some redress out of dell?

Thanks!
