    that's like some kind of torture listening to that lol

    it only happens after you play for 3 hrs? So if you play for 2 1/2 hrs, you're ok?

    and i cant mute it until i shutdown pc, nor volume down.. may happen after one hour, or 8 hours, cant tell. its not a game bug, happens with any game, or without any game lol like winamp, my bet: any times sound plays.

    it used to happen in my last laptop, which was a hp hdx 16.

    im tired of this bug!
