Guys, I've got a problem.

Suddenly on Tuesday night, I discovered a buzzing/crackling sound in my notebook speakers that appears whenever any sound is played, usually at the high frequency parts (eg. Crackling appears during the last half or so of the win7 startup sound). I don't know what I did wrong because I rarely use my notebook speakers, but the night before I did discover my system running unusually hot. I'm pretty sure it's not the sound card because no problems appear when I plug in headphones. Restoring to factory defaults (because I had fiddled with Beats and some othwr audio settings a few nights before) does seem to reduce the problem, but it doesn't completely disappear.

I know that a couple of guys have had this problem before and ended up bringing it to HP for repairs. I just need to know a few things:

1) Did HP ever tell you guys what exactly went wrong?

2) How long did it take for HP to finish fixing your dv6?

Thx.

Update, gentlemen.

I restored everything to factory defaults and the buzz was still there. I had resigned myself to sending my dv6 in for servicing and found a 1TB notebook drive to transfer everything to... and suddenly the buzzing stopped.

I still have no idea what went wrong and what went right.

Weirdness. ಠ_ಠ

[Edit]I have it!
