    I have this customer computer Sony Vaio VGN-FJ170 and the problem with this computer is that this built-in microphone looks like is all over the lcd bezel. Let me explain you, if the mic is muted and I rubber the LCD bezel or the back of the LCD with my finger tips , there is nothing WRONG. But when unmuted , just touching the LCD bezel or the cover it sounds like you are touching the tip of the Mic. Hopefully you guys understand me. I opened the bezel and it doesn't look anything out of place . Except that the mic cable(flat)coming from motherboard looks that is bended too much and make a sound when I wiggle it. Please somebody may know what is wrong or why this is happening.Thank you
