    Hello all.

    I have had my ACER laptop running Vista a few weeks now, and I have found that sometimes the volume seems to go up and down when I am listening to music (winamp) or watching films (Windows Media Player).

    Has anyone else experienced this or have a possible solution? Perhaps it is a hardware problem, or maybe a Vista problem? I am using External Speakers (Yamaha) and they've been working ok for years on various other laptops.
