    I get a squeak-type of noise coming from my Ferrari 4005 every now and then. I can't tell if it came from the speakers or something else. Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a solution for this? I find it quite annoying. BTW, I have muted line-in, microphone, and SPDIF, but that didn't help.

    Do you have infrared in that machine? I had a similar problem with an old Dell, disabling hte IR in the BIOS solved the problem.

    Try turning Off, or ON, Bluetooth. I had a similar problem with my 8104.
