    Hey Guys,

    I just replaced my AlienWare M17x R2's motherboard for the Audio Issue.

    I was getting Static Noise for every change in Music Stream, Windows Media Player -> Windows Sound(Open Folder Click Sound)..or Game Sound(Prefix Static Noise)

    (And it still does)

    And my LAPTOP LITERALLY HANGS WITH AUDIO when i EJECT A CD/DVD from the Slot with a SONG being played in Windows Media Player(Is it like usual) ?

    So, i was thinking to call Dell Rep again for replacement of the complete laptop(hoping for one)

    looking for a Possible solution/feedback.

    Thanks.

    SPECS:
    i7 840QM
    4GB DDR3 1333MHz
    500GB HDD
    ATi CrossFireX 1GBx2
    RBG LED 1920x1200
