HP Mini 5101 ***Speakers Crackle*** Guys Please HELP ME!!!

Hello guys,
Ive been browsing the forums but no luck with this issue.
I installed a Windows XP Pro SP3 on my HP Mini 5101. I also installed the appropriate drivers for this machine. All works well but got a problem in my speakers. A crackling noise in my speaker whenever I play videos, music and even system sound. 
My speakers crakle. Please help me how to fix this issue. Thanks.
Additional info:
ROM Date: 9/25/2009
ROM BIOS Version: F.02

If this problem occurred following the update, do a system restore back to a date before you updated.  If that works you can then run the updates again.  Perhaps something got corrupted as it loaded.
You could also try running the harddrive test in the BIOS.  The test not only checks your hdd, but it can repair minor glitches it finds in some software.  I had a sound issue that was magically repaired after I ran the test for another problem, so give it a shot.  It takes about 1.5 hrs to run.
Use the following steps to run the test:
If the computer is running, shut it down.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Press f10 when the HP/Compaq logo displays.
Use the arrow keys to select the Diagnostic menu.
Select HDD Self-Test Options , and then press Enter .
Select the Notebook Hard Drive option, and then press f10 to display an Estimated test time .
Press f10 to continue. The Hard Drive Self Test executes the SMART test, along with a Quick test and a Comprehensive test.
After the test completes, be sure to restart the computer to determine if the test repaired the problem.

    I haven't gotten a new sim card because the problem has been presenting itself in various cards not only mine. So far, all I've done is reset my network settings.
    Last night, I turned off the 3G tab and it had all the signal bars. Today, I did the network reset and it's working apparently. But like I said before, previously the bars just disappear and the iphone only has the 3G activated.

  • My IPhone shut off by itself and I can't turn it back on. My lock screen button is broken and I tried plugging it into the wall but nothing happened. Can you guys please help me.

    My IPhone shut off by itself and I can't turn it back on. My lock screen button is broken and I tried plugging it into the wall but nothing happened. Can you guys please help me.

    IIf the battery was completely drained it might take some time before the phone will respond. Wait at least 30 minutes with the phone connected to the charger. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the phone starts up let it continue to charge until it's 100%.
    if the broken button will not let you do the reset Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • Mac/Apple Tech Guys: Please help (Mac Mini/Imac issues)

    I have been tasked with setting up one of our rooms as a Mac lab. We want to do it wireless. We have a MAC mini server which is going in via a cat 5 into our network, which works, it sees our network and the internet. We wanted to use the wireless features on the new IMacs and use the mac mini as a work group server. It was grabbing a .192 address so the units cannot grab the internet. At the end of the day we just want these macs to be able to share files and access the internet.
    We thought we could just use the air port feature and they would "see" each other.
    I never said I knew anything about MACs/apples outside of basic trouble shooting stuff and my boss understands this, but we need to get this working for the kids (they start school Tuesday).
    Keep in mind when you answer, I know virtually NOTHING about macs and apples, etc so speak to me like I am a baby.
    PLEASE HELP!

    I'm not sure I completely follow your description, but I'll take a stab:
    1) you want the Mini to act as a file server for the iMacs
    and
    2) you want the Mini to provide a internet connection for the iMacs.
    Do I have that right? Is there anything else?
    Perhaps you could give us more details about what these Macs will actually be doing and running. (For example, will you be running Windows?)
    How Many iMacs are there? And did you purchase OSX server software for the Mini, or are you intending to use the builtin sharing features of Leopard?

  • Very confused Mini DVI to Video Converter - please help!

    I have a iBook G4 that I use as my home ents hub, I purchased a DVI to Video converter which worked well for about a week until one day my Mac started recognising it as a VGA adapter.
    When the adapter's plugged in the only options in the displays preferences panel are for VGA resolutions, no PAL or NTSC settings and I get a squiggly black screen on my TV.
    The adapter works perfectly well with my friend's identical iBook and on his iMac too.
    The mini DVI port on my mac works fine when hooked up to a VGA monitor.
    HELP!!!! Until I get this fixed I'm stuck watching Lost on a 12" screen, which *****.

    I have the exact same problem. For years my iBook has output happily to the tv via the Mini-VGA -> Composite/SVIDEO adaptor. Suddenly it stopped working and recognizes the adaptor as a VGA-Monitor.
    I've tried resetting the PMU, flashing the PRAM and NVRAM, "shoving" the cable into the socket, deleting com.apple.windowserver.plist files...
    Please help...

  • Road map for HRMS consultant for new oracle guy, please help

    road map for Oracle HRMS consultant for new oracle guy, please help

    Hi,
    If you go through the Oracle sites you will come to know that HRMS Suite has various modules like Core HR, SSHR, Performance Management, Learning Management, iRecruitment, Compensation workbench, Absence Management, Payroll, Advanced Benefits etc.
    You will have to start with understanding the Core HR concepts which is the base of the entire HRMS suite where you define the core structures like Organizations, Job, Position, Grade, Costing, Hierarchies, Employee data etc and which forms the base of the other modules.
    Post you are done with Core HR you can start understanding the Self Service functionality and Approval Management Engine.
    If you are clear with these two modules, then you can pick any other module as per your Job requirement demands.
    You can do this all if you have an instance to access where you can do hands-on. In absence of which learning will be not be easy. On apps2fusion site which I have already mentioned you can view the training calendar and check for any relevant courses if you want to under go training as the quality of training is very good.
    Training is not a mandate and you can learn it without training also if you have the dedication and time by understand each and every action which you are performing in application and the impact of it.
    Hope it helps.
    Thanks,
    Sanjay

  • IPod mini turns on by itself, please help!!

    I have had my iPod mini for about 2 years now and I started to encounter two very annoying problems within the past six months.
    1. My iPod turns on by itself. It doesnt matter if the hold button is on or off, being charged or not... it just turns on and starts playing. I was actually sitting at my laptop with my iPod next to me (off) and I watched it turn on by itself! I dont know how to make it stop!
    2. When it is palying a song, it changes playlists in the middle of it! The weird part is, that the playlist that it changes to doesnt exist!
    I dont know how to fix either of these two problems and it seems like no one else has these problems but me! Please help!

    i cant access my mobsters account through myspace. every time i try to access it i get "problem loading page" "this page cannot be found" "404 error" and it wont let me access it. myspace works fine but as soon as i click on the mobsters app i get the 404 error, this page cannot be found, problem loading page! can you please help?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    I dont understand the answer
    '''''""The problem can be solved by opening FF and choosing Tools...Add On's...select the SEARCH addon and choose UNINSTALL...restart FF browser when asked, then reload Mobsters. This worked for me. The suggestion on the 404 that says to remove Search via Add/Remove Programs is completely BS, as Search doesnt show there. ""'''''

  • Ipod touch 2g speakers not working Please help me!!!!!!

    ok so i got my ipod for christmas the loud speaker has been working great. I dnt use it that often. Just 2 days ago, it stopped working. Like the clicking sound fro the keyboards, alarms, and even music wouldnt work. Today the clicking sound came back but went again. I tried a reset and restore. still nothing. I noticed that everytime i turn off the volume and i go to music or anything that involves volume, the volume automatically adjusts to full. i dnt know if this is normal. Please help me!!

    I'm sorry for that but I guess you have to say good buy to your old friend...
    I have just received my third iPod touch that already has some new problems just to annoy me(of the conection-prolems sort).
    This is definetly a hardware problem! But you could try to be sure that nothing is left in your headphone jack. And your volume problem is weird but not unusual.
    (Excuse my bad english please)
    Oh and try to set the volume settings to adapt to one level.
    Another reason could be a faulty volume rocker switch.
