    Well After my first DV5T had really annoying buzzing, I asked for a replacement. Got the replacement and have been playing with it for about 3 days now and the buzzing is about 90% quieter.

    I know a few others were experiencing this, but with the laptops side-by-side, there is a night and day difference between the two

    Oh man I was wondering what happened to you lol!!!

    I finally got fed up with the buzzing and noises and just returned it, no replacement. I ended up ordering a Dell Desktop because I really needed a desktop more than a laptop. I kind of miss the dv5, but eh, too bad on HP, it made noises left and right, drove me nuts!

    Hope you have good luck with this new one.

    How do you have the laptops side by side though? They let you keep yours until the replacement came??????
