    Hi ya.
    So,, I received my Vostro 1400 a week ago and it was great. BUT, I just found out that my DVD drive gives out these "cliching or clicking sounds" when a Cd is running. And the DVD is so loud...

    Also, the speakers... they give out static and cracking noise whenever I play music..
    Now I am really disappointed...
    Should I contact Dell and get a replacement?????? Or are these problems happening to everyone??

    EDIT: Why do I hear beeping noises when I use ear-phones??
