I have a brand new acer laptop. It's an acer aspire v5-573PG, specs are
I found a youtube video showing the EXACT same sound I recieve!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_wDuSGbBxI
It's the buzzing sound about 3-7 seconds into the video.
My buzzing/stuttering is nowhere near as severe-at least not yet.
In fact it seems to have started about week ago, very rarely I was hearing some static while watching youtube videos but it wasn't much and I figured it was from the headphones. Now it's very annoying, I sure hope ACER didn't send me a defective product, I can't really afford to wait weeks for it to be sent in for repairs.
And now a second and possibly related issue: I've been having all kinds of problems with my disk and memory usage the past few days I checked. I've had some programs hogging outrageous amounts of my disk such as windows protection and now periodically, windows modules installer worker. Something is wrong. This should be a powerful laptop more than capable of handling basic idle windows.
Even when I have just firefox and windows media player open....
Is something like windows media player supposed to take so much of my disk?
I have updated everything I can including my graphics card and the sound drivers.
This is what I get from sfc /scannow
Thanks for your help, I greatly appreciate it.
